John Casey commented on MNG-3483:
---------------------------------
code is in place, but needs a unit test to complete it.
> merging managed dependencies should ONLY work when scope == import explicitly
> -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: MNG-3483
> URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-3483
> Project: Maven 2
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: POM
> Affects Versions: 2.1-alpha-1
> Reporter: John Casey
> Assignee: John Casey
>
> dependencies of type == pom are useful for standardizing a set of
> dependencies for use in multiple projects that don't share a
> dependencyManagement section or a common parent POM. Limiting their use to
> import operations will severely curtail this option, and can cause a lot of
> problems with existing builds where modules have a type == pom, and are
> listed in dependencyManagement so they can be referenced elsewhere.
> This is related to MNG-3391, so I'll also link them.
