Hi devs, the official paypal merchantsdk-java pom.xml here: https://repo1.maven.org/maven2/com/paypal/sdk/merchantsdk/2.15.122/merchantsdk-2.15.122.pom declares the following dependency:
<dependencies> <dependency> <groupId>com.paypal.sdk</groupId> <artifactId>paypal-core</artifactId> <version>LATEST</version> </dependency> </dependencies> It also lists this repository: <repositories> <repository> <id>sonatype-nexus-staging</id> <name>Nexus Release Repository</name> <url> https://oss.sonatype.org/service/local/staging/deploy/maven2/ </url> </repository> </repositories> which is password protected. As a result every time I build a project with the merchantsdk dependency I get the following super annoying warnings: --------------------------------------- Downloading from sonatype-nexus-staging: https://oss.sonatype.org/service/local/staging/deploy/maven2/com/paypal/sdk/paypal-core/maven-metadata.xml [WARNING] Could not transfer metadata com.paypal.sdk:paypal-core/maven-metadata.xml from/to sonatype-nexus-staging ( https://oss.sonatype.org/service/local/staging/deploy/maven2/): Not authorized [WARNING] Failure to transfer com.paypal.sdk:paypal-core/maven-metadata.xml from https://oss.sonatype.org/service/local/staging/deploy/maven2/ was cached in the local repository, resolution will not be reattempted until the update interval of sonatype-nexus-staging has elapsed or updates are forced. Original error: Could not transfer metadata com.paypal.sdk:paypal-core/maven-metadata.xml from/to sonatype-nexus-staging ( https://oss.sonatype.org/service/local/staging/deploy/maven2/): Not authorized ---------------------------------------- Moreover when my network is down the build takes eternity before it fails with exception. And then I have to tell all my colleagues to build it with -o Is there any way to tell Paypal to update their pom.xml and upload a new version? There's a 2-year old issue here: https://github.com/paypal/merchant-sdk-java/issues/46 but nobody seems to take a notice. Is there any official way to contact Paypal and ask them to fix it? -- Regards, Petar!
