Sorry about the confusion, but yeah I've never actually ran into this problem with releases, only snapshots. The example I sent in my first email may not have been valid since I wasn't deploying the releases properly. > I can see how your example with SNAPSHOTS can happen and it would make a > rather tough and puzzling problem to debug during development.

It's sad but we managed to inflict this upon ourselves with our own components, not third parties' :( I'm thinking that if bug MNG-4999 gets rejected as "Won't Fix", I could suggest that the cycle and version clash detection be added as goals to the dependency plugin. That seems like a logical place to keep that functionality. And if the owners of that plugin don't want that in there, I'll just maintain our own little plugin.
