Remove old jar version
I have an old jar for iText (1.3) that I need to remove. It is being used by
jasperreports to convert to PDF. I need jasperreports to use the newer
2.1.4. I haven't found a way to remove it from maven. I have my pom set to
require version 2.1.4. I tried to add an exclusion, but version is not part
of the exclusion tag.
Thanks,
Traigo

What does your dependency for 2.1.4 look like? I don't see it in the
central repo, at least not in the same groupId as 1.3:
http://repo2.maven.org/maven2/com/lowagie/itext/
If it's in a different groupId, you'll probably want an exclusion for
com.lowagie:itext to get rid of 1.3, and then the dependency on the
"other" itext for 2.1.4.
Maven can only mediate dependencies and choose the "right" version if
the groupId and artifactId match. Otherwise as far a Maven is
concerned, they are two different things. I assume that's what is
happening here.

It seems displaytag has a dependency for 1.3. When I removed it from my
~/.m2 and told maven to compile offline, it errored on missing it for
displaytag. I don't know why jasperreports is still using this one though.

If you declare a dependency on the newer one, then Maven should choose
that, assuming the groupId and artifactId match exactly. Are you
getting the wrong one, or are you getting both?
You can look at the output of 'mvn dependency:tree' to see where the
unwanted one is coming from.
