Just found it out by myself.. The dependency plugin creates in target a folder called "dependency-maven-plugin-markers" which acts like a cache. To make sure all available sources will be checked & downloaded again you have to clean the cache with the maven clean.
mvn -U clean dependency:sources -DoverWriteSnapshots=true -DoverWriteReleases=true solved the problem :-) -----Ursprüngliche Nachricht----- Von: Moser, Christian [mailto:c...@metrohm.com] Gesendet: Dienstag, 30.

Do you think it's a problem with the dependency-plugin? I wonder what's the criteria is to skip files when using the goal :sources. How does the plugin know, if it should skip or not? -----Ursprüngliche Nachricht----- Von: anders.g.ham...@gmail.com [mailto:anders.g.ham...@gmail.com] Im Auftrag von Anders Hammar Gesendet: Dienstag, 30.

However, I do vaguely recall seeing a ticket regarding something similar to this. Couldn't find it in jira when I searched though. /Anders On Tue, Nov 30, 2010 at 08:25, Moser, Christian <c...@metrohm.com> wrote: > Hi > > > > Maven 3.0.1 and artifactory 2.3.1 with unique (non-unique won't work) > snapshot repository doesn't UPDATE sources from the repository.
