Hi Roger, Actually, I'm working on this problem in https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MDEP-648 <https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MDEP-648> It will look through all dependencies and tell in which POM the definition for the external repository was defined in:
The output of mvn dependency:list-repositories -Dverbose will output the location of the POM files where it was defined... [INFO] id: jvnet-nexus-releases url: https://maven.java.net/content/repositories/releases/ layout: default snapshots: [enabled => false, update => daily] releases: [enabled => true, update => daily] location: /Users/pim/.m2/repository/net/java/jvnet-parent/5/jvnet-parent-5.pom [INFO] id: apache.snapshots url: http://people.apache.org/repo/m2-snapshot-repository layout: default snapshots: [enabled => true, update => daily] releases: [enabled => false, update => daily] location: /Users/pim/.m2/repository/org/apache/apache/4/apache-4.pom This will help you to identify which dependency defined the lookup...
