>
> Right now the car-maven-plugin ignores maven transitive dependencies. One
> reason for this is that our build is not using our plugins as the
> "classloader source" of the maven dependencies that are in the plugin poms.
> If we restructured our build so that the pom dependency graph matched the
> geronimo classloader graph then perhaps we could let the car-maven-plugin
> follow transitive dependencies, thus making our view of dependencies pretty
> much the same as maven's.
> This may show up many other problems, such as too many badly scoped
> dependencies in all sorts of projects we use.
> One first step is to try out the car-maven-plugin with a flag for following
> transitive dependencies. As long as it is false we ought to get pretty much
> the previous behavior.
> A first use could be for the new gshell plugins so they don't have to restate
> all the transitive dependencies. This may show up scope problems as well.
