---------------------------------------
Daniel Kulp adds:
No. It's really not corrupted despite the error. I've been tracing through
the maven code and there are a series of "transforms" (not xml transforms)
that an artifact goes through to be resolved. With Java 5, the order is:
org.apache.maven.artifact.transform.LatestArtifactTransformation
org.apache.maven.artifact.transform.ReleaseArtifactTransformation
org.apache.maven.artifact.transform.SnapshotTransformation
but with Java 6, for some reason, the order is:
org.apache.maven.artifact.transform.SnapshotTransformation
org.apache.maven.artifact.transform.LatestArtifactTransformation
org.apache.maven.artifact.transform.ReleaseArtifactTransformation
The LatestArtifactTransform is what uses to the metadata to determine
the "actual" version number (for the install plugin, 2.2-SNAPSHOT). The
SnapshotTransform then converts that to 2.2-20061118.060401-2 which is what
is then downloaded. However, in the java 6 case, the SnapshotTransform is
run first and since the version is not a "SNAPSHOT" version number, it
doesn't do any processing so then the downloading ends up looking for
2.2-SNAPSHOT, not the full version, which then fails.
I'm not sure why the order of the transforms is different yet.

> Key: MNG-2792
> URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-2792
> Project: Maven 2
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Artifacts and Repositories
> Affects Versions: 2.0.4
> Reporter: Matthew Beermann
> Priority: Critical
> Attachments: maven-metadata.xml
>
>
> When you run Maven under Java 6, the "maven-metadata.xml" file that gets
> written to the remote repository is markedly different from the one generated
> under Java 5 and earlier. This file is "corrupted" in the sense that Maven
> reports errors about it, and might not be able to locate snapshots as a
> result. See attachment for an example file; you'd expect to see build numbers
> or -SNAPSHOTs, but not both at once.
> This issue is described further at
> http://www.nabble.com/Maven-and-JDK-1.6-t3060866s177.html (originally message
> only, not the followups). This might be related to MNG-2709, but I don't
> think it's a duplicate, as it has nothing to do with testing or parents.
