Multi-Module Assembly causing build twice

[Adrian Shum]

Dear all,
 
I am using Maven 2.0.9.  I am trying to create a multi-module assembly 
by having assembly descriptor in my multi-module project.
 
<assembly>
  <id>buildsvr</id>
  <formats>
    <format>dir</format>
  </formats>
  <moduleSets>
    <moduleSet>
      <includes>
        <include>foo:foo-app-ear</include>
        <include>foo:foo-bar-web</include>
        <incldue>foo:foo-another-jar</incldue>
      </includes>
      <binaries>
        <outputDirectory>modules/${artifactId}</outputDirectory>
        <includeDependencies>false</includeDependencies>
        <unpack>false</unpack>
      </binaries>
    </moduleSet>
  </moduleSets>
</assembly>
 
In my POM:
    <profiles>
        <profile>
            <id>mss.buildSvrOutput</id>
            <activation>
                <property>
                    <name>buildSvrOutputDir</name>
                </property>
            </activation>
 
            <build>
                <plugins>
                  <plugin>
                    <artifactId>maven-assembly-plugin</artifactId>
                    <configuration>
 
<outputDirectory>${buildSvrOutputDir}</outputDirectory>
                      <descriptors>
 
<descriptor>src/main/assembly/buildSvrOutputAssembly.xml</descriptor>
                      </descriptors>
                    </configuration>
                    <executions>
                      <execution>
                        <id>make-assembly</id> <!-- this is used for
inheritance merges -->
                        <phase>package</phase> <!-- append to the
packaging phase. -->
                        <goals>
                          <goal>assembly</goal> <!-- goals == mojos -->
                        </goals>
                      </execution>
                    </executions>
                    
                  </plugin>
                </plugins>
            </build>
        </profile>
    </profiles>
 
What I am trying to do is I want to put artifiacts to be deployed to our
app server
in a dedicate directory.
 
However, when I try to build my project by mvn clean install, mvn clean
package, 
mvn clean install package or even mvn clean install assembly:assembly,
it is found
that modules in my project is built twice.  It seems that one is
triggered by normal
build lifecycle, another one is triggered by the assembly plugin. Is
that a normal 
behavior of assembly?  Or did I do something wrong?
 
Thanks
 
Adrian
