How to resolve and get the right packaging type?

[Cristiano Gavião <cv...@gmail.com>]

Hello,

I'm using maven-bundle-plugin in a project. it generates a jar but its 
packaging type is "bundle".

Maven doesn't complains when I declare a bundle dependency without the 
type property (that defaults to "jar").

In the plugin that I'm developing I need to create some files based on 
that packaging type.
I tried to resolve each direct dependency and tried to get its packaging 
type (the one fixed in its pom), but it is not working, because I always 
get the "jar" value.

    I need to know the declared artifact packaging type. How could I
    achieve this?

    thanks for any tip.
