Maven build broken by exclusions on JUnit
-----------------------------------------

                 Key: QPID-297
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/QPID-297
             Project: Qpid
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Maven build system
            Reporter: Rupert Smith


This seems to be due to the exclusion of junit (3.7.1) as an incorrect depency 
of commons-lang:

   <dependency>
       <groupId>commons-lang</groupId>
       <artifactId>commons-lang</artifactId>
       <version>2.1</version>

       <exclusions>
           <exclusion>
               <groupId>junit</groupId>
               <artifactId>junit</artifactId>
           </exclusion>
       </exclusions>
   </dependency>

Accoring to the article below, the exclusion from common-lang should not affect 
anything else. So the seperate declaration for junit 3.8.1 should not be wiped 
out by this. Removing the exclusion gets my build working though.

Looks like a maven bug, can I suggest putting exclusions in the assembly 
descriptors instead?
