This is the relevant subset of my ivy.xml file.
<configurations>
<conf name="core"/>
<conf name="war"/>
</configurations>
<dependencies>
<dependency org="org.apache.myfaces.tomahawk" name="tomahawk" rev="1.1.6"
conf="core->default,sources; war->default">
<exclude org="javax.servlet" name="jstl" />
</dependency>
</dependencies>
The 'core' config is used for the Eclipse classpath. This is the relevant
subset of the Ivy report for the whole ivy.xml file. Sensitive (but not
relevant) information has been X'ed out. As I indicated, there's no question
that the commons-validator source artifact will be retrieved if the sources
conf is specified for it... it just isn't transitively applied as you can see
from the report xml. The ivy.xml for tomahawk is just the default that is
generated by Ivy when resolving a module from a Maven 2 repo (repo1.maven.org
in this case).

Subject: Re: How to get sources for transitive dependencies with IvyDE
Can you give provide a library which you are trying to pull and you
don't get sources?
Also your ivyconf/ivy.xml will be nice.
