Hi

I've been trying to use ivy roundup to get cobertura. This has a dependency upon apache oro. Sadly, the site referenced in the packager file (http://www.urlstructure.com) appears to be dead. So I thought I'd simply exclude oro from the dependency by going:

<dependency org="net.sourceforge.cobertura" name="cobertura" rev="1.9+" conf="test->default">
   <exclude name="oro" />
</dependency>

and that I'd manually add an oro from somewhere else (and file a bug report on ivyroundup)

The above didn't seem to work - and I tried a number of variations. I kept getting messages saying:

 download failed: org.apache.oro#oro;2.0.8!javadoc.zip(javadoc)

it didn't seem to matter what other options I put in there - I was always getting the javadoc thing.

In the end, I've just switched to transitive="true" and manually added both dependencies, but I still don't understand why the exclude doesn't work.

This is with Ivy 2.1.0 IvyDE 2.0.0-final and Eclipse 3.5.2

TIA
