-----------------------------------
Nathan, I'm _not_ a Ivy committer, so can't say if that patch with get
accepted. But I think you should go ahead and open a pull request and just drop
a mail on the dev list asking for someone to review. There hasn't been much
activity on that list lately but a new committer Stephen Haberman has been
appointed, so I guess there might be some response to your review request.
> maven tests artifacts cannot be downloaded because they are mapped to private

> Key: IVY-1444
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/IVY-1444
> Project: Ivy
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Maven Compatibility
> Affects Versions: 2.3.0
> Reporter: subes
> Priority: Blocker
>
> To run an embedded hadoop server, one has to use hadoops test libraries since
> version 2.1.0-beta.
> Though fetching those test libraries fails with:
> {quote}
> configuration not public in xxx#yyy;2.1.0-rc2: 'test'. It was
> required from zzz#bbb;working test
> {quote}
> This is because the maven pom.xml converter creates this configuration entry:
> {quote}
> <conf name="test"
> visibility="private"
> description="this scope indicates that the dependency is not
> required for normal use of the application, and is only available for the test
> compilation and execution phases."
> extends="runtime"/>
> {quote}
> This makes it impossible to download test artifacts with ivy. Then the
> question arises, why are those tests jars in the maven repos anyway?
> Is there any way how to download the actual test artifacts of maven modules?
> Maybe the pom.xml converter needs to be adjusted to generate:
> {quote}
> <conf name="test"
> visibility="public"
> description="this scope indicates that the dependency is not
> required for normal use of the application, and is only available for the test
> compilation and execution phases."
> extends="runtime"/>
> {quote}
> To fix this...
