Thomas,
I believe you are right and at least the last time I checked this was not
yet fixed. There is an additional dependency subtag called 'type' which you
should set to 'war' and a further one proposed (though may not be accepted)
called 'ext' which in this case you should also set to 'war'. The second one
is required since the extension does not always match the type
Unfortunately maven (currently) will still not download your dependency
though you should be right for the future!!
In the meantime if you _do_ insert the extra tags you can use the following
jelly script (for exmple as a preGoal in your maven.xml file) to get the
dependency you really want.
Beware you will also need an updated jelly lib in your maven\lib if you are
running beta 7. Mail me if you'd like me to send you one that works (I'll
mail you directly rather than send the attachment to the list)

Subject: Problem with EAR plugin.
Hi all,
I am trying to build a J2EE project with MAVEN. And I have a problem with
the ear plugin. I understand that you use dependencies to put a war into
the ear with the following code :
<dependency>
<id>web-client</id>
<version>1.0</version>
<properties>
<ear.bundle.war>true</ear.bundle.war>
</properties>
</dependency>
But my problem is that when downloading dependencies from the repository,
Maven thinks that it is a jar and not a war.That means Maven tries to
download web-client-1.0.jar instead of web-client-1.0.war. Is there anyway
to specify that this dependency is a war ?
Thanks for the help !
