Ok, allow me to rephrase :) I'm struggling with some proprietary (IBM, Oracle, etc..) jars that I need to get added to my manifest class path. I don't want to do that manually obviously. When I add the proprietary jars to my pom and set their scope to default level, when I try to build Maven complains that it can't find the proprietary jars in any of the public repositories. I have added the jars to my local repository and correctly set the directory structure to match my pom but to no avail. So I googled and read that the way round that is to set the scope to system. But then the jars don't get added to the manifest class path anymore. So I guess my question is: how do I set it up so that Maven only looks for proprietary jars on my local repository and doesn't try to go outside and look for them?
