This warning is relevant for upstream projects, but you can safely ignore it when building RPM packages with XMvn - it always uses packaged versions of Maven plugins, ignoring versions configured in POM. > (1) add %pom_remove_parent and ignore maven until the project actually breaks; > (2) add %pom_remove_parent and then do some XPath gymnastics to add > the missing version numbers into the jakarta-jsonp POM; or > (3) package the parent POM and stop worrying. > > I've chosen to do (3). Tell me if you think this is wrong. IMHO (1), (3), (2), in that order of preference. (3) is the most elegant solution, but requires maintaining one more package than (1), which also works. (2) doesn't make much sense - it would only silence the warning at the cost of cluttering the spec file, making it harder to maintain. > As for jakarta-jsonp itself, the latest version is 2.0.0, but it fails > to build because it needs jakarta-ws-rs 3.x and jakarta-annotations > 2.x.

I can check if you give me a reference to the code (upstream, SRPM etc). -- Mikolaj Izdebski _______________________________________________ devel mailing list -- devel@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to devel-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/devel@lists.fedoraproject.org
