Tamas Cservenak updated MNG-8117:
---------------------------------
Description:
Currently, when user uses {{G:A}} the plugin tried is {{G:A:LATEST}} and is
checked for "compatibility" (Maven prerequisite in Maven3 and Maven4, plus for
Java prerequisite in Maven4 only). This may lead that "latest" (by Maven
Metadata) version is not compatible, and Maven will cycle toward older
versions. But the console output is a mess.
Current output can be seen in this gist:
