I've been working with the release plugin for the first time and
encountering build failures that I've gradually been able to resolve to
the point where I'm prompted for the desired release version, next
development version, etc. (in this initial test dry run I called it
2.5.0.a). My second to last failure involved a custom property
variable ${sakai.version} used in certain Sakai dependency declarations
that the release plugin was unable to update . I believe we have
resolved this <version> issue by updating ${sakai.version} to SNAPSHOT.
However, when I issue the following release command
mvn -e release:clean release:prepare -DdryRun=true
I encounter another build failure due to a non-existent
base-2.5.0.a.pom that Maven is attempting to locate. None of my poms
in the multi-project build reference 2.5.0.a nor is there a
release.properties file. The poms <version> are all SNAPSHOT.
How do I get the release plugin to stop trying to locate
base-2.5.0.a.pom and instead commence the release process anew?
Any suggestions would be appreciated,
Cheers,
