Downloaded plugin dependencies influence project dependencies
-------------------------------------------------------------
Key: MNG-3383
URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-3383
Project: Maven 2
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Artifacts and Repositories, Dependencies, Plugins and
Lifecycle
Affects Versions: 2.0.8
Reporter: Stefan Seidel
Attachments: pom.xml
Currently, a plugin may define additional pluginRepositories, which are used to
resolve dependencies of that plugin.
This leads to the fact that a plugin might resolve a dependency which would
normally not be available to the project.
When it does that, it seems to write a metadata-central (although on the
central repo this artifact does not exist) and thus, the project will use that
dependency, too.
How to reproduce:
1. remove xstream from local repo:
{code}rm -Rf ~/.m2/repository/com/thoughtworks/xstream{code}
2. run mvn clean install on the attached pom.xml
-> the build should fail because the version 1.3.0-SNAPSHOT is not available at
repo1.maven.org
3. edit the pom.xml, uncomment the plugin definition (jspc used for
demonstration purposes only)
3. run mvn clean install again
-> the build succeeds and the 1.3.0-SNAPSHOT is being built into the artifact,
which is wrong.
