**[Benjamin Bentmann](https://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/ViewProfile.jspa?name=bentmann)** commented > Aggregator poms do not install anything into "target" and should not take part in the "clean" workflow. > This statement does not hold for all use-cases. A project with packaging POM may fairly well produce output in its "target" directory. This can naturally happen if one has site sources in the parent project (just see Surefire). Likewise, a user might want to configure an additional plugin to get run in the lifecycle of the parent project that produces output in "target". Since version 2.2, the Clean Plugin has a skip option (see MCLEAN-24) which should allow you to suppress the cleaning in pom-complete.xml. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
