Hello, I encountered the following problem (Maven 2.0.4):
There is a top-level (organizational) POM which is inherited by all other projects' POMs. Particularly, a custom Maven plugin inherits from the top-level POM. The problem is that the top-level POM uses the custom plugin (the plugin is bound to the package phase to log deployment info to the database, thus it is declared in the top-level POM). Obviously, there is a circular dependency which prevents me from installing/deploying the custom plugin (mvn install; mvn deploy). I'm wondering if there is a way to somehow disable plugin inheritance in the child POM (custom plugin POM). (Custom plugin deployments don't need to be logged to the database). The only thing I found that the parent POM can specify that a plugin won't be inherited by a child POM but I'm looking for the opposite. I also tried to use empty <plugins></plugins> tag in the child POM but it didn't help. Thanks!
