Richard Vowles commented on MNG-2742:
-------------------------------------
This has been true since 2.0.4? You *have* to be kidding! I am using 3.0.3 and
it is still broken!
> Using a version range in a plugin dependency causes "failure to resolve
> artifact" error
> ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

> Project: Maven 2 & 3
> Issue Type: Bug

> If I declare a dependency in a plugin using an exact version, Maven correctly
> resolves the artifact. If, however, I change the dependency's version to a
> version range, Maven no longer resolves the artifact. I'm using the very
> same artifact and version range in my project's dependencies and everything
> works ok. See my attached pom.xml file for details, in particular, the
> comments "<!-- Using version range here ok -->" and "<!-- Can't use version
> range here! -->".
> I am using the "major.minor.revision-buildNumber" version string syntax as
> described on the wiki.
