I have seen a lot of posts asking about how to install jar files in the local
repo, and install:install-file works fine, but I can't find a way of
automating it.  All the docs and the posts talk about manually installing
3rd party jars when they are needed.  My goal is to have a project in source
control that anybody can checkout and run a single mvn goal, resulting in N
jar files in the local mvn repository.

I have tried configuring a pom with install-file as an execution in the
install cycle, e.g.

<build>
  <plugins>
    <plugin>
      <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
      <artifactId>maven-install-plugin</artifactId>
      <configuration>
        <file>...</file>
        <groupId>...</groupId>
        <artifactId>...</artifactId>
        <version>...</version>
      </configuration>
    <plugin>
  </plugins>
</build>

Is this so crazy?  The plugin barfs with a message about "Cannot override
read-only parameter:".  It seems I cannot use install-file except on the
command line.  Have I missed something obvious?  Is there a better way to do
this?
