maven-ant-tasks 2.1 regression from 2.0.10 ?

[Michael Bushe <mi...@bushe.com>]

Hi,

Apache Pivot uses maven-ant-tasks to get it's ant build products into a
maven repo.  This works if the classpath has maven-ant-tasks version 2.0.10
but does not work with maven-ant-tasks 2.1 on the classpath.  The error
using 2.1 is:

maven-install:
 [artifact:install] An error has occurred while processing the Maven
 artifact tasks.
 [artifact:install]  Diagnosis:
 [artifact:install]
 [artifact:install] You must specify a file and/or an attached artifact to
 install to the local repository.

This error message was added between 2.1 and 2.0.10:

http://svn.apache.org/viewvc/maven/ant-tasks/trunk/src/main/java/org/apache/maven/artifact/ant/DeployTask.java?view=diff&r1=884303&r2=884304&pathrev=884304

The Apache Pivot build.xml's relevant target is:
   <!-- Installs JARs to local Maven repository -->
    <target name="maven-install" depends="clean, package">
        <artifact:install>
            <artifact:pom file="pom.xml"/>
        </artifact:install>
        <artifact:install file="lib/pivot-core-${version}.jar">
            <artifact:pom file="core/pom.xml"/>
        </artifact:install>
        <artifact:install file="lib/pivot-web-${version}.jar">
            <artifact:pom file="web/pom.xml"/>
        </artifact:install>
        <artifact:install file="lib/pivot-wtk-${version}.jar">
            <artifact:pom file="wtk/pom.xml"/>
        </artifact:install>
        <artifact:install file="lib/pivot-wtk-terra-${version}.jar">
            <artifact:pom file="wtk-terra/pom.xml"/>
        </artifact:install>
        <artifact:install file="lib/pivot-charts-${version}.jar">
            <artifact:pom file="charts/pom.xml"/>
        </artifact:install>
    </target>

Is there something that Pivot can do to adjust?
