I don't believe this does what I want.
Ivy has this in its dependency section
<dependency org="org.apache.httpcomponents" name="httpclient"
rev="${httpclient.version}" conf="default,httpclient->runtime,master"/>
<dependency org="org.apache.commons" name="commons-compress"
rev="${commons-compress.version}"
conf="default,pack200->default,optional">
<exclude org="com.github.luben"/>
<exclude org="org.brotli"/>
<exclude org="org.tukaani"/>
</dependency>
...
both httpclient and commoms-compress end up as optional in the Maven
POM.
As a project that depends on Ivy I only want to pull in the dependencies
required to use httpclient but not pack200 as I know nothing is going to
use pack200 (or vfs, or jsch or ...). With an Ivy file I can say
default->httpclient . Can I achieve the same with a POM alone?
