I've put together a group of projects as a multiproject (so the parent pom.xml references the others as modules). They all build just fine as snapshots. I'm now trying to do a release:prepare on the group as a whole (running from the parent pom directory). There are interdependencies within the group, and the prepare goal seems to set the versions correctly. However, once the goal has changed all the pom.xml file, it attempts to do a package goal for the group of projects, and this fails because it can't find the release version of the dependent jar (which is being released as part of this operation). My understanding was that running mvn package on a multiproject would use the targets of each of those projects to find dependencies if there were interdependencies, but it doesn't seem to work that way. Is something going wrong here, or am I expecting it to do something it's not supposed to do? ..David..
