Example: a.jar (0.1) depends on b.jar (0.1) c.jar (0.3) depends on b.jar (0.2) d.jar (0.4) depends on a.jar (0.1) and c.jar (0.3) What version of b.jar will be chosen by Maven? 0.1 or 0.2? You cannot predict that. Neither a.jar nor c.jar can rely on getting the version they want. That is why the concept of fixed version dependencies is fully broken, sorry.
