Thanks Tim. I do have these two sites. I searched my local repo and the
ejb-plugin is the latest one: 2.1. I also found the release notes for this
release:http://www.nabble.com/-ANN--Maven-Ejb-Plugin-2.1-released-tf3208223s177.html#a8909122.
If I am reading correctly this manifest is still a bug in this release:
** Bug
* [MEJB-7] - Transitive Classpath not written to the manifest
....
Not sure what to do with it. I might want to try using jar plugin. Any help
is appreciated.
