Solution: --------- One solution is of course to forbid inheritance in plugins. However, that's not nice as a plugin is a maven project which can be part of a more global project. A better solution IMO would be that plugin:install will rewrite the full project.xml, including the inherited items. This modified project.xml will get package in the plugin jar. --------------------------------------------------------------------- JIRA INFORMATION: This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
