Christian Schulte commented on MNG-5227:
----------------------------------------
Issue is fixed in the master branch of [my private maven repository on
github|https://github.com/ChristianSchulte/maven/tree/master]. When interested,
you can cherry pick the commit to your own repository and create a pull request
for the apache master branch with just this commit yourself from there.
> The 'optional' flag of a dependency should be manageable.
