> We recently hit an issue with resolving some POMs with the ibiblio resolver and usepoms=true. The problem is that the version for a dependency can be stored in the dependency management section of a parent POM.
> The apache directory server is an example.
> http://repo1.maven.org/maven2/org/apache/directory/server/apacheds-server-main/1.5.0/apacheds-server-main-1.5.0.pom
> Note that the POM for the parent build artifact has the version information for the last 5 dependencies.
> The PomModuleDescriptorParser currently only builds a dependency descriptor if the groupId, artifactId and version are all set. So for the case of apache directory server, many of the transitive dependencies are ignored.
> I have been working on an extension to the PomModuleDescriptorParser that build the dependency management information at the end of the project/parent element by parsing the parent chain. Then if a dependency is found without a version, then the dependency management information is used.  I attach the patch after some more testing.
