[jira] Commented: (MNG-3588) ${maven.repo.local} in settings.xml doesn't work.

["Marcin Kuthan (JIRA)" <ji...@codehaus.org>]

    [ http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-3588?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=138494#action_138494 ] 

Marcin Kuthan commented on MNG-3588:
------------------------------------

The parameter ${settings.localRepository} doesn't work as well. The parameter inside profile is simply ignored.

It seems that command "mvn -Dsettings.localRepository=C:\alternative_repo_location package" also doesn't work, all artifacts are stored under default location.

I don't know how to prepare regression test for this case. Where can I find any maven regression testing manual?
