Christian Schulte commented on MNG-5227:
----------------------------------------
That test case is testing the correct version is inherited and is not about
anything scope. The author did not notice he is running into a Maven core
issue. Please see the patch and tell me the test case is testing correct
behaviour when not applied.
> The 'optional' flag of a dependency should be manageable.
