Commons Configuration and Ivy

[Emmanuel Bourg]

Hi,

I just started playing with Ivy and tried retrieving the Commons 
Configuration artifact, but I noticed that Ivy keeps pulling the 
optional and test jars even if I only request the default jars. Here are 
the ivy.xml file and the Ant build I used:

<ivy-module version="2.0">
    <info organisation="test" module="test"/>
    <configurations>
        <conf name="default"/>
    </configurations>
    <dependencies>
        <dependency
            org="commons-configuration"
            name="commons-configuration"
            rev="1.4"
            conf="default"/>
    </dependencies>
</ivy-module>


<project name="test" default="go" xmlns:ivy="antlib:org.apache.ivy.ant">
    <target name="go">
        <ivy:retrieve conf="default"/>
    </target>
</project>

If I change for the 1.5 revision it's slightly better (junit and xerces 
are gone), but it still retrieves the optional jars such as 
servlet-api.jar, and it retrieves the test dependencies of 
commons-logging (log4j, logkit and avalon).

Is this a known issue or am I doing something wrong ?

Thanks for your help,

Emmanuel Bourg
