>          Components: Artifacts and Repositories
>    Affects Versions: 2.0.4
>         Environment: Linux debian 2.6.16-2-686
>            Reporter: Milos Volauf

> I wanted to try the maven-eclipse-plugin, the goal make-artifacts.
> mvn eclipse:make-artifacts
> However, make-artifacts goal is not in eclipse plugin 2.2, only in 2.3-SNAPSHOT.
> So followed guides and added pluginRepositry section into my ~/.m2/settings.xml (attached)
> so that I can use an apache plugin snapshot repository.
> Then I tried:
> mvn org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-eclipse-plugin:2.3-SNAPSHOT:make-artifacts -P apache
> But maven did not try to load the snapshot plugin:
> ...
> [INFO] Failed to resolve artifact.
> GroupId: org.apache.maven.plugins
> ArtifactId: maven-eclipse-plugin
> Version: 2.3-SNAPSHOT
> Reason: Unable to download the artifact from any repository
>   org.apache.maven.plugins:eclipse:pom:2.3-SNAPSHOT
> from the specified remote repositories:
>   central (http://repo1.maven.org/maven2)
> We can see that maven did not try the pluginRep. specified in settings.xml.
> The I found out that if I run the command above in the folder where pom.xml exists, it works.
> (I created an initial project by archetype plugin.)
> So it seems to me that this is a (maybe small) bug. Usually, people run maven in folder where pom.xml exists, most goals require it.
> However, certain goals can run without pom.xml (such as eclipse:make-artifacts) and here it seems to me that maven ignored my settings (pluginRepositories).
