> It can happen that Maven fetches broken {{maven-metadata.xml}} into the local
> repo (e.g. because it doesn't understand HTTP error codes properly and
> downloads HTML files or just because the remote repo serves crap). Currently,
> the bad metadata file for one repo will make the entire dependency resolution
> fail, regardless whether the repo/metadata in question is actually needed to
> complete the resolution.
> We should just warn in case of unreadable metadata. If it was crucial for the
> current artifact resolution, it will still fail the build later on when all
> metadata has been merged (and the bits from the broken metadata are missing).
