Eric, The properties you should use are includeGroupIds [1] and includeArtifactIds [2]. The POM file you provided does not pluralize those properties.

It seems that no matter what I put for includeGroupId and includeArtifactId it always unpacks all dependencies instead of only those that I want. I was looking through jira to see if anyone else had this problem and found something that looks like it might be related (although it only talks about includeClassifiers): http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MDEP-257 That suggests to "Update the version [of maven-common-artifact-filters] to current version 1.2 ... and you'll be fine". So, I'm wondering how do I do that? I tried removing my .m2 directory to see if it would pick up a newer version, but I still end up with version 1.0. (and only maven-dependency-plugin 2.0, even though it looks like there's a 2.1 version available) Alternately, am I doing something wrong with the unpack-dependencies configuration? At the end of this message is an example pom.xml file that demonstrates the problem. I am expecting this to only unpack the commons-beansutils dependency, but it also unpacks commons-validator (and it's dependencies). I tried this with Maven 2.2.1.
