Jeff Schnitzer updated MNG-5761:
--------------------------------

    Description: 
A detailed description of the issue is here:

http://stackoverflow.com/questions/28312975/maven-dependencymanagement-version-ignored-in-transitive-dependencies

The short of it is that maven appears to be using the wrong 
<dependencyManagement> version in a transitive dependency.  There are two 
relevant <dependencyManagement> sections in the build, one pulled in by guice 
and one pulled in by gwizard-parent. These are the dependency paths from the 
top:

gwizard-example -> gwizard-config -> gwizard-parent
gwizard-example -> gwizard-config -> guice -> guice-parent

gwizard-parent's dependencyManagement specifies guava 18
guice-parent's dependencyManagement specifies guava 16

Guava 16 is winning. This seems highly undesirable, and in fact it breaks our 
build. I would expect that in a version # fight, "closest to the top" should 
win.
