----------------------------------
Resolution: Duplicate
> Inconsistent override behaivor with BOM vs dependency
> -----------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: MNG-6246
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MNG-6246
> Project: Maven
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Dependencies
> Affects Versions: 3.5.0
> Environment: osx jdk 1.8
> Reporter: Jay mann
> Priority: Major
> Attachments: mvn-bug.tar.gz
>
>
> Consider we have 2 BOM files:
> bom1 - dependency version 1
> bom2 - dependency version 2'
> When a bom1 is imported into a parent and bom2 is imported into a child of
> parernt, child correctly overrides the dependency and uses "verision 2".
> When parent does not import bom1 but explicitly states "dependency 1" in the
> <dependencyManagement> section, and child imports bom2, "version 1" of
> dependency is used (bom2 in child does not override the dependency)
> This seems like inconsistent behavior as documentation explains that a BOM
> basically imports the <dependencyManagement> section of the bom into the
> current pom.
> If this is expected behavior it should be documented as we recently moved all
> our dependencyManagement section into a BOM for organizational reasons and it
> did not work as expected.
> Attached is a sample, to test simply extract and run:
> mvn install -f bom1/pom.xml
> mvn install -f bom2/pom.xml
> mvn dependency:tree -f project/child/pom.xml
> mvn dependency:tree -f project2/child/pom.xml
> project uses bom in parent and child and is overridden correctly.
> project2 parent uses dependency instead of bom, child uses bom but dependency
> is NOT overridden.
