This is specifically by design. the versions plugin only works on the pom, not what is outside of the pom... thus if you run in a multi-module build and lock everything down in the root parent, the root parent will tell you of all the plugins that need to be upgraded and all the child plugins will say "all is fine"... except for that one errant child that specified a different plugin version ;-) Note that in the next release display-plugin-updates will only tell you when there are newer versions that work with the /project/prerequisites/maven version that you specify... but in those cases it will also tell you what version you can go to if you up the minimum required maven version... and the last thing I need to add (after i fix some bugs) is that it will warn if you are using plugins that require a newer version of maven than has been specified in /project/prerequisites/maven -Stephen > > 2011/11/25 Oleg Estekhin <[email protected]>: >> Hi >> >> Under some circumstances the maven checks for new versions in the local >> repository only.
