The reason it got stuck was that many POMs had explicit maven-surefire-plugin configs, locking to <version>2.3</version>. A residue from a workaround from some earlier problem if I recall correctly. Removing those settings makes maven clean install -DskipTests run through without failing (because it builds the test jars, and the dependencies are satisfied, presumably...?). --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
