I am using 3.5.3 but had the same issue with 3.5.2 before: Apache Maven 3.5.3 (3383c37e1f9e9b3bc3df5050c29c8aff9f295297; 2018-02-24T20:49:05+01:00) Maven home: /opt/apache-maven-3.5.3 Java version: 1.8.0_144, vendor: Oracle Corporation Java home: /opt/jdk1.8.0_144/jre Default locale: en_US, platform encoding: UTF-8 OS name: "linux", version: "4.4.0-116-generic", arch: "amd64", family: "unix"
You mentioning a repository manager has reminded me to try clearing out ~/.m2/repository to force a re-download of the plugins: works like a charm! I have also verified with a clean Docker image that a fresh install will indeed use the latest maven-archetype-plugin. Thanks for pointing out the obvious and sorry that I have not tried clearing out ~/.m2/repository earlier.
