RE: [M2] Avoiding snapshot plugins (fixed)

Skins aren't dependencies or plugins, at least they're not used as such
here. It seems it is selected programmatically (I went looking through
the source code).

However, I figured out the problem. The metadata in our Maven proxy
listed just the snapshot version. When I deleted out what was in our
proxy and let it re-download, the release version (1.0) was correctly
found.

Anyway, thanks for the help.

Search / grep the pom files in your .m2 repo for "maven-default-skin"
and see if one of them has brought in this SNAPSHOT dependency. If
you've got a released plugin downloaded from Central and it has this
SNAPSHOT dependency, that is clearly a bug and the Maven Dev team will
want to address it.

Also, try mvn -X to see the dependency stack which should show where
this SNAPSHOT is being brought in.

Finally, its a good idea to specify versions of all dependencies and
plugins, to avoid surprises like this.
