Hello list,

I think I might have found a bug in the reactor, could you please validate I am 
not missing something.

I have a maven project inside a release process that downloads module 
dependencies and rebuild a source.jar of one of our application (for debugging 
purposes). We have also a little tool that scans the files to see the 
differences. 

Everytime I deploy an application, I deploy a CSV file as well. I need then the 
CSV of the previous release to do the comparaison and generate an HTML with the 
diffs.

So my maven project managing the sources and the diff is quite simple

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<project>
    <extend>${basedir}/../project.xml</extend>
    <name>Aplication XXX sources</name>

    <id>xxx-src</id>

    <dependencies>
        [ ....]

        <!-- Download CSV file of the previous release to launch listfoot 
compare -->
        <dependency>
            <groupId>xxx</groupId>
            <artifactId>xxx-src</artifactId>
            <version>${xxx.previous.version}</version>
            <type>csv</type>
        </dependency>
    </dependencies>
</project>

The xxx.previous.version is NOT the same as pom.currentVersion of course.

When I start the reactor (to build the EAR, the lib and the sources + the 
comparaison), I have this error:

Starting the reactor...

BUILD FAILED
File...... C:\workspace\xxx-3.4\application\xxx\maven.xml
Element... maven:reactor
Line...... 78
Column.... 36
A cycle has been detected from the initial goal [xxx:xxx-src]
Total time: 3 seconds
Finished at: Mon Nov 08 11:24:50 CET 2004


If I now remove the dependencies, the reactor starts ok. It does sound good to 
me (because the dependencies I have is not the current one).

Any solution to this issue or is it a bug?

Cheers,
St�phane
