Hi, if you use the copy goal, you don't have to add them to your list of dependencies. Personally I would use the copy-dependencies goal and copy only the ones with scope provided (i.e. you don't have to specify each one again). Cheers, Jörg Am Fri, 23 Feb 2018 09:58:09 -0800 schrieb lewis

I should also say, that the workaround is to list each and every transitive dependency in the dependency declaration with scope 'provided', such that they are NOT on the normal runtime classpath but ARE correctly copied into the target directory defined within the maven-dependency-plugin
