Local repository location for plugins
-------------------------------------

                 Key: GERONIMO-3487
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GERONIMO-3487
             Project: Geronimo
          Issue Type: Improvement
      Security Level: public (Regular issues)
          Components: Plugins
            Reporter: Jarek Gawor


The generated geronimo-plugin.xml contains the local repository as: 
<source-repository>~/.m2/repository/</source-repository>. That assumes that the 
local repository lives in the user's home directory (the 
PluginRepositoryDownloader.java replaces ~ with user.home system property). 
However, this might not be always be true as Maven can be configured to use a 
different directory.  

It might be nicer to generate the geronimo-plugin.xml with 
<source-repository>${local.repo}</source-repository> or similar and then the 
PluginRepositoryDownloader.java would replace it with an appropriate value. For 
example. by default it would assume ~/.m2/repository but the user could specify 
a different directory by setting a system property or changing the 
configuration.
