dmatej opened a new issue, #1642: URL: https://github.com/apache/maven-dependency-plugin/issues/1642
### Affected version 3.11.0 ### Bug description Old GlassFish version 5.1.0 has a documentation artifact with a snapshot parent in Maven Central. While Maven Dependency Plugin 3.10.0 was able to download and unpack it without any issues, 3.11.0 tries to resolve the parent and crashes the build, because the parent is not available anywhere. (minor note - I use local mirror, but that is not important for the failure, we noticed it on CI first) ``` mvn clean install -f docs/publish [INFO] Scanning for projects...
