------------------------------------------
Sorry to say that but as Kristian already mentioned this is the wrong
way...please go first via the user mailing or in this cast it might be good way
to go via dev list...but JIRA issues is definitively not the right way...
> Add flag to analyze-dep-mgt goal to ignore exclusion errors

> Key: MDEP-490
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MDEP-490
> Project: Maven Dependency Plugin
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Reporter: Jonathan Haber

> I would like to run the analyze-dep-mgt goal with failBuild=true, but it
> doesn't work because of exclusion errors. One common example is libraries
> that accidentally depend on junit at compile scope instead of test scope.
> When I encounter a library like this, I add an exclusion on junit. But I have
> junit in my dependency tree at test scope, so my build fails with a message
> like:
> {quote}
> [INFO] junit:junit:jar was excluded in DepMgt, but version 4.11 has been
> found in the dependency tree.
> {quote}
> I think the simplest fix is to add a flag to the analyze-dep-mgt goal to
> ignore exclusion errors. I just want to use the goal to check for version
> mismatches, if I want to enforce banned dependencies the
> maven-enforcer-plugin has more robust support for this. I implemented this
> change in [this|https://github.com/apache/maven-plugins/pull/54] pull
> request.
