I added the block below to my .m2/settings.xml according to this guide:
http://maven.apache.org/guides/development/guide-plugin-snapshot-repositories.html
<profile>
<id>snapshot-apache</id>
<repositories>
<repository>
<id>apache.org</id>
<name>Maven Snapshots</name>
<url>http://people.apache.org/repo/m2-snapshot-repository</url>
<releases>
<enabled>false</enabled>
</releases>
<snapshots>
<enabled>true</enabled>
<updatePolicy>always</updatePolicy>
<checksumPolicy>warn</checksumPolicy>
</snapshots>
</repository>
</repositories>
<pluginRepositories>
<pluginRepository>
<id>plugins.apache.org</id>
<name>Maven Plugin Snapshots</name>
<url>http://people.apache.org/repo/m2-snapshot-repository</url>
<releases>
<enabled>false</enabled>
</releases>
<snapshots>
<enabled>true</enabled>
<updatePolicy>always</updatePolicy>
<checksumPolicy>warn</checksumPolicy>
</snapshots>
</pluginRepository>
</pluginRepositories>
</profile>
'mvn -Psnapshot-apache help:active-profiles' confirms the above profile is
enabled, but 'mvn -X -Psnapshot-apache' always refuses to download from
the snapshot repo, with these messages:
[DEBUG] Skipping disabled repository plugins.apache.org
[DEBUG] Skipping disabled repository plugins.apache.org
[DEBUG] Skipping disabled repository plugins.apache.org
[DEBUG] maven-help-plugin: using locally installed snapshot
What am I missing? Thanks.
