Greetings, [INFO] [enforcer:display-info {execution: default}] [INFO] Maven Version: 2.2.0 [INFO] JDK Version: 1.5.0_16 normalized as: 1.5.0-16 [INFO] OS Info: Arch: i386 Family: unix Name: linux Version: 2.6.29.5
It seems ridiculous to me that I have to specifically list a dependency version when it is bound to a particular plugin. Please see the example: <build> <plugins> <plugin> <artifactId>maven-remote-resources-plugin</artifactId> <dependencies> <dependency> <groupId>com.mycom.super.resources</groupId> <artifactId>checkstyle</artifactId> <version>0.0.1-SNAPSHOT</version> </dependency> </dependencies> <executions> [...] </executions> </plugin> </plugins> When I already have defined a managed version of that dependency as such: <dependencyManagement> <dependencies> <dependency> <groupId>com.mycom.super.resources</groupId> <artifactId>checkstyle</artifactId> <version>0.0.1-SNAPSHOT</version> </dependency> </dependencies> </dependencyManagement> When I don't code a version inside the <build> section, I receive the following: [ERROR] FATAL ERROR [INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [INFO] An invalid artifact was detected.

Why must I duplicate this information? Worst of all, the m-release-p doesn't bump these versions as I would hope it would. So, these things quickly become out of sync and are a royal PITA to maintain.
