Hi,
This question is regarding dependencies and how they are stored in repo1 AND
my local repo.

First, on repo1, I noticed that some versions (of projects) contain jars and
some do not. For instance:

http://mirrors.ibiblio.org/pub/mirrors/maven2/cobertura/cobertura/1.8/
has jars but

http://mirrors.ibiblio.org/pub/mirrors/maven2/cobertura/cobertura/1.9rc1/
does not. 
Just a .pom file exists.

Similarly, on my local repo, when I built my project (using a clean local
repo), antlr was downloaded. There is no direct dependency on antlr on my
project, so I suppose it was pulled in transitively. However, my local repo
is missing antlr-2.7.6.jar. All it has is a antlr-2.7.6.pom (and a sha1
file). Note however that repo1 for antlr 2.7.6 does have the jar!
http://mirrors.ibiblio.org/pub/mirrors/maven2/antlr/antlr/2.7.6/

Also, the .pom file that does exist does not point to a different location.
Sometimes it even has a packaging element specified as 'jar'. Yet there is
no jar file.

So what decides whether a jar is downloaded to my local repo or not. 
Why do some projects have just .pom files and others have jars + .pom files?
And why did Antlr's .jar not get downloaded to my local repo, instead only
antlr-2.7.6.pom was only downloaded?


Thanks,
Pankaj
