>                 Key: MNG-114
>                 URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-114
>             Project: Maven 2
>          Issue Type: Improvement
>          Components: Artifacts and Repositories
>            Reporter: Brett Porter
>
> During development, there is the occasional situation where your latest 
> change to a component may hose the installation if you are building and 
> installing into m2 or the repository m2 uses.
> I think this will particularly affect mojo developers because they are used 
> straight from the local repository. John was encountering this while working 
> on the compiler.
> This is most likely to bite when the version is the same, which happens when 
> it is a SNAPSHOT constantly being developed and tested.
> I suggest a couple of things:
> - the ability to easily run from a different M2_HOME on the command line 
> (using the same start script, but flipping homes)
> - this verifies the need to separate the plugin repository from the artifact 
> dependency repository
> - I'd like the ability to force the use of a "clean" repository: a read only 
> one (where the jars are downloaded but not installed), used at runtime to get 
> the plugins while developing via some command line switch when your install 
> gets hosed.
> I'm open to further discussion on how this could work, especially in context 
> of more light being shed on the plugin repository use itself, and whether 
> plugins can be installed for a user by a profile.
