**[Brett Randall](https://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/ViewProfile.jspa?name=brett_s_r)** commented Sorry I can't provide a test-case project, but this issue appears to have struck a multi-module project here: Apache Maven 2.2.1 (r801777; 2009-08-07 05:16:01+1000) Java version: 1.6.0_16 Java home: /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun-1.6.0.16/jre Default locale: en_AU, platform encoding: UTF-8 OS name: "linux" version: "2.6.31-17-generic" arch: "amd64" Family: "unix" org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-javadoc-plugin:2.6.1 org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-release-plugin:2.0-beta-9 I picked up javadoc 2.6.1 when I linked to a corporate POM. When I overrode this the project's top-level parent POM to go back to javadoc plugin 2.6, the release then succeeds. My failure occured during the mvn release:perform phase of a release, with error message similar to the OP - Javadoc plugin complaining about dependencies. In my case Module B _does_ depend on Module A, with Module A being built before it in the reactor. So this felt like some sort of reactor problem. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
