Maarten Coene commented on IVY-820:
-----------------------------------

I don't think your code snippets illustrate a bug. The excludeRule must know 
from which configurations it must exclude the artifact. So, it seems logical to 
me that your first example won't work. For your second example, "*" is not a 
configuration, so it doesn't work as well.

I still couldn't reproduce the original problem where the exclude is defined in 
an ivy.xml file.

> When declaring a global exclusion, the module is excluded only from locally 
> declared dependencies, and not their transitive dependencies.  The only way 
> to exclude a module from an entire project, is to declare the exclusion 
> locally for every dependency that either directly, or through a transitive 
> dependency, relies on the module.  A detailed explanation of this issue can 
> be found on the mailing lists here (first two posts explain the issue more 
> thoroughly):
