Bart Skondin created MNG-5255: --------------------------------- Summary: Dependency with 'provided' scope has its transitive dependency included in final artifact Key: MNG-5255 URL: https://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-5255 Project: Maven 2 & 3 Issue Type: Bug Components: Dependencies Affects Versions: 3.0.4 Environment: Apache Maven 3.0.4 (r1232337; 2012-01-17 00:44:56-0800) Maven home: D:\bin\apache-maven-3.0.4 Java version: 1.6.0_27, vendor: Sun Microsystems Inc.

Expected: A dependency declared with a scope of 'provided', along with any transitive dependencies, should not be included in the final artifact. Actual: I have a dependency, jsp-api, declared with 'provided' scope. This dependency has a dependency of its own, servlet-api. The servlet-api.jar is being included in the web-inf/lib folder of the resultant war file. Background: We recently upgraded from Maven 2.2.1 to Maven 3.0.4. The problem was not witnessed until after the upgrade. Steps to Reproduce: Run mvn install, then have a look at the web-inf/lib folder. Notice that the servlet-api.jar has been included. Additional Info: It seems that I can only reproduce this behavior when declaring a specific dependency in my pom, spring-ldap. Here is the dependency tree for the given pared-down project (attached): --- maven-dependency-plugin:2.1:tree (default-cli) @ provided-scope-not-working --- com.bug.example:provided-scope-not-working:war:0.0.1-SNAPSHOT +- javax.servlet:jsp-api:jar:2.0:provided | \- javax.servlet:servlet-api:jar:2.4:provided \- org.springframework.ldap:spring-ldap:jar:1.2.1:compile +- commons-logging:commons-logging:jar:1.0.4:compile +- commons-lang:commons-lang:jar:2.1:compile +- org.springframework:spring-beans:jar:2.0.6:compile | +- (commons-logging:commons-logging:jar:1.1:compile - omitted for conflict with 1.0.4) | \- (org.springframework:spring-core:jar:2.0.6:compile - omitted for duplicate) \- org.springframework:spring-core:jar:2.0.6:compile \- (commons-logging:commons-logging:jar:1.1:compile - omitted for conflict with 1.0.4) -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
