Hi all.
I apologise for reposting this; I messed up my earlier posting, and since there has been a lot of activity on the list and nobody has answered my question, I wondered whether my screw up had caused people to ignore the posting. I am relatively new to Maven and I have recently started working on a project who's build is a bit... twisty.

In order to remove some custom stuff I am trying to upgrade Maven to 2.1.0 and to use version 2.3.0 of the install plugin. The stage now being set, here is my problem. We have a property (version.qualifier) set in our settings.xml file. When our poms are installed, this property does not have it's value substituted in the poms (which we refer to as ${version.qualifier}). However, if we pass the required value of version.qualifier as a -D parameter on the command line, then the value is substituted in the poms when they are installed.

Is this expected behaviour? If it is, please point me to something that explains why.

Regards,

Lance
