Paul Gier updated MNG-4789: --------------------------- Attachment: maven-3-dependency-issue.zip I think I agree with MNG-4156 that a local scope shouldn't override a transitive one. In this case I think the correct behaviour would be to assume both scopes are valid, so the resulting scope would be compile. So I think the way it's done in 3.0-beta-3 is correct, as long as there is documentation explaining how/why the decision is made. Is the aether wiki [1] the correct place to put docs/examples? I'm also attaching a more minimal project demonstrating the issue.

I have a project with multiple interdependent > modules. > module 2 -> module 1 -> thirdparty dep > Module 1 has a compile scope dependency on thirdparty dep. Module 2 has a > test scope dependency on module 1. Using dependency management, in > 3.0-beta-2 module 2 ended up with a test scope dependency on thirdparty. In > 3.0-beta-3 module 2 ends up with a compile scope dependency. "mvn > dependency:tree" reports a test scope in both cases, but with > maven-3.0-beta-3 the thirdparty dep appears in the compile classpath. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://jira.codehaus.org/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
