Hello, To circumvent bug MNG-3092 (1), I applied the patch file given in the JIRA issue to all possible versions of org.apache.maven:maven-artifact. This resulted in patched versions 2.0, [2.0.2-2.0.9] in my local repository.
(1) http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-3092 After doing this, I went back to my test project be.telenet.test:srv.a that has a dependency to be.telenet.test:common:[8.3,8.4). My local repository contains versions 8.3.0, 8.3.1 and 8.3.2-SNAPSHOT of module common. The patch should exclude snapshots, but running "mvn dependency:list" on my project srv.a gives the following output: [INFO] [dependency:list] [INFO] [INFO] The following files have been resolved: [INFO] be.telenet.test:common:jar:8.3.2-SNAPSHOT:compile [INFO] junit:junit:jar:3.8.1:test So I am quite puzzled why the SNAPSHOT version is still picked up. Is there any other code in Maven besides maven-artifact that handles versioning and version selection? Ringo P.S. Apologies for the pesky disclaimer that the mail server appends below! It is beyond my control... ************************************************************* Dit e-mail bericht inclusief eventuele ingesloten bestanden kan informatie bevatten die vertrouwelijk is en/of beschermd door intellectuele eigendomsrechten.
