Robert,
I'm not sure if this is related, but I noticed a bug not so long ago with
the <caches> element. I wanted to use:
<caches
repositoryCacheDir="${ivy.default.ivy.user.dir}/repositoryCache"
resolutionCacheDir="${project.home}/.ivy2/resolutionCache"
lockStrategy="artifact-lock"
useOrigin="true"/>
but for some reason Ivy refused to pickup the repositoryCacheDir. After
changing <caches> to include a defaultCacheDir, the repositoryCacheDir was
used. My <caches> element now reads:
<caches defaultCacheDir="${ivy.default.ivy.user.dir}/defaultCache"
repositoryCacheDir="${ivy.default.ivy.user.dir}/repositoryCache"
resolutionCacheDir="${project.home}/.ivy2/resolutionCache"
lockStrategy="artifact-lock"
useOrigin="true"/>
the defaultCacheDir is completely unused, because both repositoryCacheDir &
resolutionCacheDir was specified, but it seemed to be required in order to
make use of the repositoryCacheDir.
