Thanks. It was a version error. 2.3 did the trick.

Oh, you right. But you already answered your question! Use excludeDefaultDirectories. It works fine, really. Be sure you use 2.3 version of maven-clean-plugin. (as it mentioned in documentation this option work only since 2.3)

<plugin>
<groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-clean-plugin</artifactId>
<version>2.3</version>
<configuration>
<excludeDefaultDirectories>true</excludeDefaultDirectories>
</configuration>
</plugin>

    I can delete the directories ok. What I can't do is prevent it from
    deleting the target directory.

           I'm using maven-dependency-plugin to make a custom directory of
           dependencies. The trouble is that I can't find a way to
        delete the
           outputDirectory before the plugin runs so I can be sure there
        aren't
           any old files left over in it.

           I tried to use maven-clean-plugin to do it, but it insists on
           deleting the entire /target directory, which I don't want. It
        looks
           like there is an excludeDefaultDirectories option available
        on the
           command line, but putting
           <excludeDefaultDirectories>true</excludeDefaultDirectories>
        in the
           <configuration> section doesn't work.

           Any other suggestions?
