David Hoffer commented on MNG-2431:
-----------------------------------
What do you mean by 'latest STABLE version of a library"? If you mean latest
released version this is what version ranges is supposed to be for. It does
bring the latest version into your build, the trouble with it is that it will
also consider snapshots to be valid which is a documented bug, see MNG-3092.
> Make it possible to specify that version should be the LATEST STABLE available

> Hi!
> I've been looking for a way to specify that the latest STABLE version of a
> library (dependency) should be used automatically. However, I can't seem to
> find any information on this. Is this not possible? The "Dependency Version
> Ranges" doesn't solve the problem for me since it sets with the lowest
> version satisfying the range.
