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

             Summary: dependency:list mismatch with -Dartifact= format
                 Key: MDEP-533
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MDEP-533
             Project: Maven Dependency Plugin
          Issue Type: Bug
    Affects Versions: 2.10
            Reporter: Christopher Tubbs


I believe there is a bug in {{dependency:list}}. The output format is:

{{<groupId>:<artifactId>:<type>:<version>}}

Most of the other goals, like {{get}} and {{copy}} expect the artifact coordinates to be of the form:

{{<groupId>:<artifactId>:<version>:<type>}}

This means you cannot easily write a script to use the output of {{list}} to resolve artifacts with {{get}} or {{copy}} and {{-Dartifact=...}}

I believe this is probably a bug in the output of {{list}}, but if anybody is relying on it, it might be better to add a new goal which fixes it by default, and has an option to specify the output format.
