Using maven-javadoc-plugin Version 2.5 or 2.6 for a project of type <packaging>maven-plugin</packaging> leads to the following error message, even if the aggregation is not set:

Error extracting plugin descriptor: 'Goal: ... already exists in the plugin descriptor ...

Using maven-javadoc-plugin Version 2.2 solves this problem.
