Hi Everybody,

In my module's Ivy file I have a configuration (say X) which extends several configurations (say Y 
and Z). Conf X is the principal conf which is exposed to customers, while Y and Z are private 
confs, they are quite 'technical', so are likely to change, add, remove, extend other confs etc. If 
I want to deliver/publish conf X and specify conf="X" in ivy:publish (or ivy:deliver) 
task, I'm getting an error like 'Cannot exclude a configuration which is extended'. So I have to 
specify the whole list of all confs that X extends so that they not get excluded: 
conf="X,Y,Z". My question is: is there any way to make Ivy implicitly include 
configurations extended by a configuration explicitly specified? That way I would not have to 
manually synchronize my build script with my Ivy file every time it ch
anges. Sorry if I've missed this issue in docs or this mailing list. Thanks for any hint in advance!

Otherwise, you could raise a feature request to include a new attribute on deliver and publish, something like includeRequiredConfs.
