regression : <dependency> in plugin configuration doesn't override plugin
classpath
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: MNG-3426
URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-3426
Project: Maven 2
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Plugin API
Affects Versions: 2.0.8
Reporter: nicolas de loof
Priority: Critical
Many maven plugins are wrapper around other tools. The plugin is designed for a
version of the tool, and in many case user will want to use a specific version
without having to patch the plugin. The <dependency> element on plugin
configuration is a common way to do this, by overriding the plugin POM
dependency with another version. This used to work with maven < 2.0.8
In maven 2.0.8, this doesn't work anomire as the <dependency> set in plugin
configuration is added to classpath, as a duplicate for the on declared by the
plugin but LATER in the classpath.
