---------------------------------

             Summary: Unable to find referenced rule AvoidReassigningCatchVariables
                 Key: MPMD-310
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MPMD-310
             Project: Maven PMD Plugin
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: PMD
    Affects Versions: 3.13.0
         Environment: macOS Catalina 10.15.7, OpenJDK 11, Maven 3.6.3
            Reporter: Jacek Musial


I am getting following error when running 
{code:java}
mvn clean install{code}
{code:java}
[ERROR] Failed to execute goal org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-pmd-plugin:3.13.0:pmd (default-cli) on project pmd-issue: Execution default-cli of goal org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-pmd-plugin:3.13.0:pmd failed: Unable to find referenced rule AvoidReassigningCatchVariables; perhaps the rule name is mispelled? -> [Help 1]{code}
The rule I want to add ([https://pmd.github.io/latest/pmd_rules_java_bestpractices.html#avoidreassigningcatchvariables)] was added in PMD 6.27.0 and Maven PMD Plugin is using 6.29.0 version of PMD.


For this bug I have created very simple maven project with empty main java class and one ruleset  "AvoidReassigningCatchVariables". Code is very simple. If you would prefer source code files as attachment, please let me know.

{code:java}
package com.example; 
public class Main { public static void main(String[] args) { } } {code}
