Paul Benedict commented on MNG-3978: ------------------------------------ Why is this new behavior desirable? Based on the issue description, I am lead to believe that every dependency must have its scope declared if it is different than the default scope. I try to specify scopes in dependencyManagement and not re-specify them when actually declared. > Parent Pom Dependency Scope overrides Child Pom Dependency Default Scope > ------------------------------------------------------------------------ > > Key: MNG-3978 > URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-3978 > Project: Maven 2 > Issue Type: Bug > Components: Inheritance and Interpolation > Affects Versions: 3.0-alpha-1 > Reporter: Shane Isbell > Assignee: Shane Isbell > Fix For: 3.0-alpha-2 > > > If parent pom specifies a scope within a dependency and the child does not > specify scope, the child inherits the parent dependency scope.
