> Key: MNG-4276
> URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-4276
> Project: Maven 2
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Class Loading, Plugins and Lifecycle
> Affects Versions: 2.0.6
> Reporter: Benjamin Bentmann
> Assignee: Benjamin Bentmann
> Fix For: 3.0-alpha-3
>
>
> To compensate the effect that MNG-2892 would have on bad plugins, a hack was
> put into the core that automagically injects plexus-utils:1.1 as a direct
> plugin dependency if the plugin does not already declare a direct dependency
> on plexus-utils:1.1+. However, only checking the plugin's direct dependencies
> for plexus-utils ignores any version of plexus-utils that is used by a
> transitive dependency. This corrupts the runtime class path of the plugin and
> can result in linkage errors like reported in [AW: NPE with
> maven-changelog-plugin and git|http://markmail.org/message/naniwae3p2rgvvhe].
