>             Project: maven-plugin-plugin
>          Issue Type: Bug
>    Affects Versions: 1.5
>         Environment: Linux (Debian), Maven 1.1

> Problem:
> When I try to compile Geronimo, it fails when trying to install its plugin into the $MAVEN_HOME directory, since it is a shared installation in /usr/local/maven-1.1. It does not install the plugins on a per-user basis to my maven local directory (~/.maven). Is this the intended behaviour?
> Analysis:
> In the org.apache.maven.plugin.PluginManager class, which is called for plugin:install-now, the plugin is installed in the user plugins dir, as we may check through the following code:
>       if ( cache )
>       {
>            FileUtils.copyFileToDirectory( file, userPluginsDir );
>            cacheManager.registerPlugin( pluginName, housing );
>            housing.parse( cacheManager );
>            cacheManager.saveCache( unpackedPluginsDir );
>       }
> Since I am not sure if the behaviour was intentional, I would like to know your opinion about that. 
> From the point of view that there is an inconsistent behaviour, I will attach a patch that changes plugin:install to do the same as plugin:install-now: install in the user directory. With this patch, current repository version of Apache Geronimo works properly.
> Concerning plugin removal, the code already check both directories (global and user), as you may check here (plugin/plugin.jelly):
>     <define:tag name="uninstall">
>       <ant:delete verbose="false" failonerror="false">
>         <ant:fileset dir="${maven.plugin.dir}">
>           <ant:include name="${name}-*.jar" />
>         </ant:fileset>
>         <ant:fileset dir="${maven.plugin.user.dir}">
>           <ant:include name="${name}-*.jar" />
>         </ant:fileset>
>       </ant:delete>
> Thank you!
