------------------------------------
Summary: Maven Plugin Validation message is misleading
Key: MNG-7786
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MNG-7786
Project: Maven
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Core
Affects Versions: 3.9.2
Reporter: Tamas Cservenak
Fix For: 3.9.3
The Maven artifact scope validation is misleading, it claims "... should
declare in provided scope", and this may happen in this case:
* perfectly valid POM (does declare Maven artifacts in provided scope)
* but plugin developer uses problematic maven-plugin-plugin (ie. 3.6.2 that
suffers from descriptor generation bug)
Proposal:
* reword the message, to clearly point at "plugin descriptor contains bad
entries..."
* add new check that _actually checks plugin dependencies_ (and not "derived"
descriptor dependencies that may differ from POM declared ones due m-p-p bug)
