Can't use maven-install-plugin with <goal>install-file</goal> in POM
--------------------------------------------------------------------

         Key: MINSTALL-29
         URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MINSTALL-29
     Project: Maven 2.x Install Plugin
        Type: Bug

    Versions: 2.2    
 Environment: WinXP, running M2 in Cygwin
    Reporter: Brad Harper
    Priority: Minor


This issue is related  to another I submitted recently.  In fact, the earlier 
issue was encounted
in an earlier attempt to get the same results. (see bottom, below.)

Consider the POM descriptor containing

<pluginRepositories>
  <pluginRepository>
    <id>snapshots</id>
    <url>http://svn.apache.org/maven-snapshot-repository</url>
  </pluginRepository>
</pluginRepositories>

  <build>
    <plugins>
      <plugin>
        <artifactId>maven-install-plugin</artifactId>
        <version>2.2-SNAPSHOT</version>
        <executions>
          <execution>
            <id>install-library</id>
            <phase>install</phase>
            <goals>
              <goal>install-file</goal>
            </goals>
            <configuration>
              <groupId>com.epsiia.dxr.third-party</groupId>
              
<artifactId>dxr-third-party-WINDOWS-X86-com-emc-centera-fplibrary-lib</artifactId>
              <version>2.0SP1</version>
              <packaging>lib</packaging>
              <file>FPLibrary.lib</file>
            </configuration>
          </execution>
        </executions>
      </plugin>
    </plugins>
  </build>

M2 fails to build in this project because all </configuration> elements are 
read-only.  [I'm attempting
to use the 2.2-SNAPSHOT because I get the same error in stable versions. ]

Shouldn't this execution be allowable and equivalent to the CLI invocation

   % mvn install:install-file -DgroupId=com.epsiia.dxr.third-party ..

I'm trying to create a mind-numbingly simple environment, so that other 
less-experienced developers
aren't required to know which of the third-party libraries need to be manually 
installed via once-only
occurances should the local repository need to be re-constructed.
