> Where a pom describes a jar that contains a pom, Nexus should check that the metadata agrees.
> This would have prevented some projects from releasing renamed jars using incorrect Maven metadata.
> For example, the external metadata:
> <dependency>
>   <groupId>org.apache.solr</groupId>
>   <artifactId>solr-commons-csv</artifactId>
>   <version>3.5.0</version>
> </dependency>
> actually refers to 
>   <groupId>org.apache.commons</groupId>
>   <artifactId>commons-csv</artifactId>
>   <version>1.0-SNAPSHOT</version>
>  
> Ideally, there should also be some check of the package names for jars that don't have embedded POMs, as for example:
> <dependency>
>   <groupId>org.apache.solr</groupId>
>   <artifactId>solr-carrot2-core</artifactId>
>   <version>3.5.0</version>
> </dependency>
> which uses the org.carrot2 package name space - which is unlikely to be an ASF package name.
> However, this is tricky to do accurately, so should probably only generate a warning.
