> Support for legacy repositories was removed for http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-4204 but if you now try to build something were an artifact exists only on a "legacy" repository the build will warn:
> [WARNING] 'repositories.repository.layout' for maven-repository.dev.java.net uses the deprecated value 'legacy'. @ 
> ...
> [WARNING] For this reason, future Maven versions might no longer support building such malformed projects
> but then the build just fails with a missing artifact message.
> Class org.apache.maven.repository.legacy.LegacyRepositorySystem has explicitly:
>     public ArtifactRepository createArtifactRepository( String repositoryId, String url, ArtifactRepositoryLayout repositoryLayout, ArtifactRepositoryPolicy snapshots, ArtifactRepositoryPolicy releases )
>     {
>         if ( repositoryLayout == null )
>         {
>             repositoryLayout = layouts.get( "default" );
>         }
> ...
>     }
> So while the LegacyRepositoryLayout does not exist anymore, Maven will treat the repository as Default-Repository and of course fail to find something.
> From my point of view the Warning at the beginning should rather be an error. The reference to "future" versions is also quite misleading as the support was already removed in the current version (-> org.apache.maven.model.validation.DefaultModelValidator#validateRepository reports that violation).
> What's the intended behaviour here?
