One way to get away from this problem is - remove <version> element from your plugin, so that release:prepare will work - download the latest svn of war plugin and build. maven will pickup the local snapshot build from there on.
When the next war plugin release, you can put the version back. -Dan On 1/23/06, Richard Wallace <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > The project doesn't depend on a plugin from within the <dependencies> > section of the pom.
