Carl Quinn commented on IVY-1170:
---------------------------------

Could someone take a look at this patch and apply it towards 2.2.0 RC? Or let me know if they see a problem with it?

We are currently running a locally built Ivy version, and I'd like to get this officialized if possible.

> While tracking down some unexpected behavior in our Ivy-based build system, I ran across what looks like a bug in LatestVersionMatcher.needModuleDescriptor(). In that method, it has a hard-coded check for "latest.integration" to determine when to not require a module descriptor and just grab the newest thing.
>     public boolean needModuleDescriptor(ModuleRevisionId askedMrid, ModuleRevisionId foundMrid) { 
>         return !"latest.integration".equals(askedMrid.getRevision()); 
>     } 
> In our case, we have redefined our status to be the maven-like names: 
>     <statuses default="snapshot"> 
>         <status name="release" integration="false"/> 
>         <status name="snapshot" integration="true"/> 
>     </statuses> 
> Where in our case "snapshot" replaces "integration". And this LatestVersionMatcher then fails to allow "latest.snapshot" to grab artifacts w/o module descriptors. (all those old jars that I haven't Ivy-fied yet :) 
> I will work on developing a patch.
