Gilles Scokart commented on MNG-3370:
-------------------------------------
batik:batik-bridge and batik:batik-script:jar version 1.6-1 (used for example
by fop) also have circular dependency.
(See also MNG-3459)
> Fail build on circular dependencies
> -----------------------------------
>
> Key: MNG-3370
> URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-3370
> Project: Maven 2
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Artifacts and Repositories
> Affects Versions: 2.0.8
> Reporter: Mark Hobson
>
> Currently circular dependencies are merely logged at debug level and not
> generally reported to the user. The general consensus is that circular
> dependencies are bad, so I believe that they should be reported as early on
> as possible. Previously the repository's low quality metadata was cited as a
> reason not to fail the build, but I would have thought such issues should
> have been rectified by now.
> Ideally we would throw a CyclicDependencyException in
> DefaultArtifactCollector. If this is deemed too invasive, then we should at
> least increase the log level in DebugResolutionListener to warning.
