------------------------------------
Assignee: Tamas Cservenak
> 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
> Assignee: Tamas Cservenak
> Priority: Major
> 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)
