[jira] Commented: (MINSTALL-1) Install plugin installs a jar to repository with default name, even if name is overridden

kiran kadarla commented on MINSTALL-1:
--------------------------------------

If we can't install/deploy with a build.finalName, then what is the point in even having the facility to use a final name? 
It would be better if build.finalName can override the default maven naming convention while installing. 
I don't understand why it would be impossible to retrieve the dependency if a finalName is used while deploying.
As the finalName.jar is kept inside groupid/artifactid/version folder structure, it should be possible to override the jar name with a build.finalName.

> When using the install plugin to install a jar to the repository, the default name of the jar is used, even if the name is overridden.   Also, if you define your own type via a plugin ('myjar'), when installing, it will be installed as 'myjar'.  This should be overrideable otherwise it is impossible for a user to override the default type plugins.
