Jason van Zyl commented on MNG-5526:
------------------------------------
Coming with Maven 3.2.2 you will be able to use ranges in parent elements. Will
this work for your requirements to get the latest parent with all your
definitions? While these cannot be unbounded you can do something like
[1.0,2.0) where you can continually release the parent and have it be used.
> parent with 'RELEASE' version not resolved when only maven-metadata-local.xml
> (with a SNAPSHOT pom) file available in the local nexus repo

> We have a parent pom project containing all infrastructure + plugin version
> to be used by all our projects.
> We always point to the RELEASE of this parent pom for our projects. However
> when there is only a maven-metadata-local.xml in our local nexus repo, we get
> the following error.
> Non-resolvable parent POM: Failed to resolve version for
> be.company:parent:pom:RELEASE and 'parent.relativePath' points at wrong local

> When we remove this meta-data-local.xml file, all works fine again. It also
> works fine if there are already som maven-metadata-nexus.xml files available
> I could reproduce this by using the following pom projects (see attachments),
> and following these steps:
> 1) deploy a version 1.0.0 for the parent pom to your repo;
> 2) remove the deployed parent from your local repo (suppose someone else did
> the deploy to the remote repository)
> 3) install/deploy a version 1.0.1-SNAPSHOT to your repo;
> 4) now try to install/deploy the artifact project, pointing to the RELEASE
> version of the parent pom.... you will get the given error
