Unexpected Conflict Resolution while installing struts-1.1

[Frank Kemmer <fr...@gmail.com>]

I am still trying to setup our enterprise repository with
<ivy:install> from ibiblio/maven2 ... :)

I experienced the following problem installing struts-1.1 (yes, they
use older software over here ... :) Here is the output on the terminal
when installing struts-1.1:

What I don't understand, why has [ apache | commons-collections | 3.1
] been evicted? In the generated ivy.xml for struts-1.1 it explicitly
forces common-collections in version 3.1 as a dependency and my
defaultConflictManager is /all/.

Here is my ivysettings.xml file:
<><><>
<ivyconf>
    <properties file="${ivy.conf.dir}/ivybuiltin.properties" override="true"/>
    <properties file="${ivy.conf.dir}/ivyorganization.properties"
override="false"/>
    <properties file="${ivy.conf.dir}/ivyproject.properties" override="false"/>
    <properties file="${ivy.conf.dir}/ivysettings.properties" override="false"/>

	<conf   defaultCache="${ivy.cache.dir}"	
            defaultResolver="public-libraries"
            defaultConflictManager="all" />		<!-- in order to get all
revisions without any eviction -->

    <!-- Import resolver definitions for entprise & ivyrep, maven1 & maven2 -->
    <include file="${ivy.conf.dir}/ivysettings-repo-enterprise.xml" />
    <include file="${ivy.conf.dir}/ivysettings-repo-ivy.xml" />
    <include file="${ivy.conf.dir}/ivysettings-repo-maven1.xml" />
    <include file="${ivy.conf.dir}/ivysettings-repo-maven2.xml" />

	<resolvers>
	    <!-- Our well-known imported repositories -->
	    <resolver ref="enterprise" />
	    <resolver ref="official-ivy-repo" />
	    <resolver ref="ibiblio-maven1-with-namespace" />
	    <resolver ref="ibiblio-maven2-with-namespace" />
	    <resolver ref="ibiblio-maven2-without-namespace" />

	    <!-- Chain of Resolvers -->
	    <chain name="public-libraries" returnFirst="false">
			<resolver ref="enterprise" />
			<resolver ref="ibiblio-maven2-with-namespace" />
	    </chain>

	    <!-- Chain of Resolvers -->
	    <chain name="public-libraries-all" returnFirst="false">
			<resolver ref="enterprise" />
			<resolver ref="official-ivy-repo"/>
			<resolver ref="ibiblio-maven2-with-namespace" />
	    </chain>
	</resolvers>
</ivyconf>

The ibiblio resolvers are defined as in the Ivy Tutorial. The
/public-libraries/ chain says not stop when something is found in
enterprise (returnFirst="false") and the conflict manager is defined
to resolve to all versions (defaultConflictManager="all").

So why does Ivy evict [ apache | commons-collections | 3.1 ]? Can
somebody enlighten me? Thx in advance. Cheerio ... :)
