Note that the user 'specialuser' owns Tomcat, Archiva, and Continuum

maintains same artifacts under its own repos (under Tomcat - see above) that Continuum maintains under its default local repository (see above) - and this means unnecessary duplication to me. I mean all those huge artifact
jars are present in two places on my server.

This would be likely to cause conflicts for the Maven process as it executes, and the format of the local and remote repositories are different.

While it's not ideal, you are best to utilise the purge features of both Continuum and Archiva to keep the local and snapshot repos trim so that duplication is at a minimum.

Hopefully future versions of Maven will better support this within the local repository (I have a proposal prepared for this already).

Cheers,
