Got it.
My suggestion would be to create a plugin that uses the attachment
mechanism for a set of JARs. build-helper might already do that.
eg..
<configuration>
<artifacts>
<artifact>
<g/> <a/> <v/> <file />
</artifact>
...
</artifacts>
</configuration>
And in the plugin:
for ( Artifact a : artifacts ) { projectHelper.attachArtifact( a ); }
And then run:
mvn install
or
mvn deploy
All the attached artifacts will be shipped with it.

The problem seems to be that there's no "good" way of installing or
deploying multiple 3rd party jars using a pom and, at least in the
current release of M2, the install:install-file goal doesn't work
properly within a pom.
I was perfectly content with using a shell script to do the deploy, but
that didn't seem to work for Dave Syer (he does a better job than I of
explaining his problem with this solution). As I said below, it did get
me thinking if there wasn't a need for a new packaging type. Even when
the install plugin is released with the fix to make install:install-file
usable within a pom, deploying multiple 3rd party jars using a pom will
still be extremely verbose. Unless I'm missing something, it requires a
new <execution> block for each jar. Twice in fact if you want to use
install as well as deploy.
As far as I know, this isn't something you can use assembly:unpack to
do.

Not quite sure which direction you are going here, but I'd recommend
using the assembly plugin + its unpack goal to do this (shipping just
the one big artifact around, and it can retain internal directory
structure).

Something like this...

<version>1.1.2</version>
<fileName>jai-1.1.2/jai_core.jar</fileName>
</jarFile>
</jarFiles>
</configuration>
<extensions>true</extensions>
</plugin>
</plugins>
</build>
</project>
This new packaging type is only configured for deploy and install
phases
(maybe verify as well).
Thoughts?
Although I'm perfectly happy with my shell scripts, I can see the
virtue
in doing this with a pom.
