Paul Benedict updated MNG-4375:
-------------------------------
Fix Version/s: (was: Issues to be reviewed for 3.x)
> Fail build on circular dependencies
> -----------------------------------
>
> Key: MNG-4375
> URL: https://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-4375
> Project: Maven
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Reporter: Mark Hobson
>
> Currently circular dependencies are merely logged at debug level and not
> generally reported to the user. The general consensus is that circular
> dependencies are bad, so I believe that they should be reported as early on
> as possible. Previously the repository's low quality metadata was cited as a
> reason not to fail the build, but I would have thought such issues should
> have been rectified by now.
> Ideally we would throw a CyclicDependencyException in
> DefaultArtifactCollector. If this is deemed too invasive, then we should at
> least increase the log level in DebugResolutionListener to warning.
