------------------------------------

Yes, confirming that the change fixes this issue for me, and also shows the constraint when it's a range. Thanks.

> MDEP-339's fix increases the level of verbosity in the dependency tree to include the specified constraint as well as the actual version. In many builds, these will be identical.

> [INFO] |  +- commons-lang:commons-lang:jar:2.4:compile (scope managed from 2.4; version selected from constraint 2.4)
> {noformat}
> The format change makes diffing the old and new versions difficult to see what behaviour has changed. In the case where the constraint is the same as the version it doesn't seem to add much information.
> I'd suggest omitting it when the version exactly matches the constraint.
