Gilles Scokart commented on IVY-651:
------------------------------------
For me, when there is no artefact in the repository but only a downloadURL, it
is because the artefact must be downloaded and installed manually (= usualy
read and accept a license).
See
http://www.nabble.com/Why-some-packages-has-no-jars--tf2557176s177.html#a7128013
What maven do in this case is reporting an error explaining how where to
download the artefact, and how to install it locally.
> Ivy should be able to handle downloadUrl in POM
