Building the latest version of the plugins require to set the snapshot repository. Have a look at the guide: http://maven.apache.org/guides/development/guide-testing-development-plugins.html
Your required dependency can be found there: http://people.apache.org/maven-snapshot-repository/org/apache/maven/plugins/maven-plugins/2-SNAPSHOT/ I guess you shoudl correct parent pom to version 1 of maven-plugins, since current 2-SNAPSHOT version will require you to get maven-2.0.5-SNAPSHOT. Or else, you can still install the latest version of maven :) Denis. Dave Syer wrote: > > Thanks. I'll try and follow it through the JIRA updates.
