jira-importer opened a new issue, #257: URL: https://github.com/apache/maven-jlink-plugin/issues/257
**[Christian Kohlschütter](https://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/ViewProfile.jspa?name=c...@newsclub.de)** opened **[MJLINK-82](https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MJLINK-82?redirect=false)** and commented I'm trying to use maven-jlink-plugin with a project that has a Maven dependency with `<type>pom</type>` (which functions as an umbrella dependency bundle with several jars as its dependencies). Currently, maven-jlink-plugin fails in this case with the following error message: > [ERROR] Failed to execute goal org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-jlink-plugin:3.2.0:jlink (default) on project junixsocket-demo-jpackagejlink: The given dependency /Users/ck/.m2/repository/com/kohlschutter/junixsocket/junixsocket-core/2.9.1-SNAPSHOT/junixsocket-core-2.9.1-SNAPSHOT.pom does not have a module-info.java file. So it can't be linked. -> [Help 1] See https://github.com/kohlschutter/junixsocket/commit/a73ce7f100a5f886f232a49e5b12fda98cf9f2d7 for an example. For what it's worth, the setup works just fine with jlink-maven-plugin (https://github.com/Akman/jlink-maven-plugin) Patch is attached. --- **Affects:** 3.2.0 **Attachments:** - [0001-MJLINK-82-Skip-POM-dependencies-when-assemling-jlink.patch](https://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/attachment/13067299/0001-MJLINK-82-Skip-POM-dependencies-when-assemling-jlink.patch) (_1.57 kB_) -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
