John Casey updated MNG-2438:
----------------------------

    Fix Version: 2.0.5

we should probably get some resolution for this for 2.0.5, since it's a real 
mess to debug. My order of preference for the solution is:

1. figure out how to be smarter about determining whether a metadata file 
contains relevant info before merging it.

2. suppress metadata resolution from legacy repositories

> search for metadata in legacy repositories causes wrong repository source to 
> be used for artifact resolution

> legacy repositories store all version metadata in a single file under the 
> /poms/ subdirectory of the artifactId dir. This means that snapshot 
> resolution will result in the legacy repository being marked as the source 
> for the artifact, regardless of whether that metadata file contains the 
> snapshot is actually in that repository's metadata file or not. This is 
> because the metadata manager (and metadata class itself, possibly) assumes 
> that all metadata files resolved for a particular artifact/snapshot are 
> relevant to that snapshot...when the legacy repo's metadata is merged into 
> the rest of the in-progress metadata, changes are detected, and the legacy 
> repo is adopted as the source for the latest artifact information, regardless 
> of whether it actually contains information about that snapshot or not.
