Hi folks,

I am currently trying to fix MDEP-506 [1].

The core problem is that a POM has a dep in dep mngt without version and that dependency is never referenced. Unfortunately, that build succeeds though the POM is invalid.

I have done some digging and found DefaultModelBuilder#importDependencyManagement. The faulty dependency is skipped because it is neither type pom nor import [2]. That would make the build fail in the first place.

After all that the DefaultModelValidator#validateEffectiveDependency method kicks in and validates the dependency elements but explicitly excludes deps from dep mngt from version validation [3].

Can someone tell me why? It does not feel right.

An issue was raised and committed but not resolved [4].

Michael
