Hervé Boutemy commented on MPIR-343:
------------------------------------
a plugin may not be only a plugin: see for example asciidoctor-maven-plugin
which is a maven plugin, but also a Doxia Parser Module to simply add as a
dependency to maven-site-plugin
then in general, yes, a plugin is only a plugin, but sometimes not
making efforts to remove the info does not really bring value IMHO
> Skip Dependency Information report if package is maven-plugin

> Key: MPIR-343
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MPIR-343
> Project: Maven Project Info Reports Plugin
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: dependency-info
> Affects Versions: 2.8.1
> Reporter: Michael Osipov
>
> Dependency Information report is run for all types of packagings. The
> information is displayed for various build systems but Maven Plugins can only
> be reasonably used within Maven. The information snippets are pointless. We
> should skip generation with a logged info that this does not make sense.
