Re: dependency:unpack is not checking reactor artifacts for dependencies

[Varghese C V <vc...@zafinlabs.com>]

I have a parent project which has two modules 'my-app' and 'my-dep-app' 
(both created by the archetype-create example). The 'my-dep-app' project 
wants the 'my-app' dependency to be unpacked into its target\classes 
folder. I am trying to merge the classes of multiple model projects 
before I can run the jibx xml binding compiler on them. This way I need 
only one jibx binding factory for a group of related models.

The error 'Failed to resolve artifact' and the fact that it works when 
installed in the local repository suggests that reactor artifacts are 
not checked to resolve the dependency. Is this a multi-module problem?

I would like to point out that looks very similar to a resolved 
dependency plugin issue (http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MDEP-44), 
except that I dont use the assembly plugin as shown in the test case.

Any help is appreciated.

Maven : 2.0.6
Maven dependency plugin : 2.0 alpha 4

This is the output I get. PFA the poms(Zip attachments are getting rejected)
