I've changed the AbstractPluginPackagingMojo.java to accept 'binary-plugin':
<code> ... if ((packaging.equals("pom")) /*|| (packaging.equals("binary-plugin"))*/) { ... </code> and changed the package and install phase in the components.xml: <package> org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-site-plugin:attach-descriptor </package> <install> org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-psteclipse-plugin:install </install> it works (for me)B-) Sumit Gupta wrote: > > I'd like to preface my answer below with the small fact that we don't > actually deploy our eclipse plugins in-house, and hence we had not > encountered this issue at the time of writing the article.
