Had the exact same problem! AFAIK the only way around this is to have
a dedicated module with the correct dependencies in place.
Unfortunately I could not figure out how to access plain files (not
just the artifacts or sources) from the assembly then.
Sad story as it is - in the end I did the assembly with a shell
script ...instead of spending even more time on maven.
If you find good solution - please let me know.
cheers

Hi list,
and again a problem using the maven-assembly-plugin. I've got a
multimodule build with a custom assembly descriptor I would like to
execute the assembly plugin when the install phase is beeing executed.
Unfortunately this doesn't work as expected. The assembly is beeing
defined and attached to the lifecycle in the parent pom. When
invoking the install phase the parent is processed and the
assembly:attach is called immediately after the install of the
parent pom. That means that the submodules (which I'm referencing
in the assembly descriptor) haven't been invoked. I've attached the
resulting error to the bottom of this mail.
Thx for any help
The Parent POM:
