[jira] (MDEP-272) purge-local-repository does nothing if certain dependencies are included

Tuomas Kiviaho updated MDEP-272:
--------------------------------

    Attachment: PurgeLocalRepositoryMojo.patch

For me it failed with dependencies that had unresolvable parents or which used version ranges. Here's a fix that I'm using to get past this problem.

> I've noticed that the {{purge-local-repository}} goal does nothing if certain dependencies are present in the dependency tree of the project.
> After some attempts I've found some of the dependencies that can show problem.
> See attached {{pom.xml}}: if I run {{mvn validate}} as is, maven purges the local repository and the log4j jar is downloaded from the remote repository.
> Removing the comment around the jasperreports dependency and re-running {{mvn validate}} gives the following result:
> {code}
> [INFO] [dependency:purge-local-repository {execution: default}]
> [INFO] Nothing to do for project: test-issue:test-issue:pom:1.0.0.0-SNAPSHOT
> {code}
> So it seems that something goes wrong while resolving the dependencies for the project if the jasperreports jar is included, resulting in the {{purge-local-repository}} to skip the clean of the local repository.
> I dont know if this happens only with jasperreports dependency or if it is something more general.
