No this is not issue, probably bad design of maven plugin.
Because if I take configuration out of executions then it is working other wise 
throw ridiculous error.

But if I aggregate pom's then unpacking doesn't work at all (where ever you put 
configuration for this plugin doesn't work, because it can not read
artifactItems)

For me this is bug of plugin or maven design, it doesn't matter it just not work
