It should be possible to declare transitive dependency exclusions independent
of any of the immediately declared dependencies
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: MNG-3173
URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-3173
Project: Maven 2
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: POM
Affects Versions: 2.0.7
Reporter: Steven Cummings
There are situations in projects with many dependencies where a transitive
dependency that is desired to be excluded is pulled in by several of the
immediate dependencies. In these situations it can be awkward and clumsy to
have to add and maintain this particular exclusion in each immediate dependency
that introduces it.
There should be a way to list exclusions independent of a specific immediate
dependency, so that they take effect for all of them wherever the specified
artifacts might be introduced transitively.
