Description

Consider this dependency:

<dependency>
<groupId>javax.faces</groupId>
<artifactId>jsf-api</artifactId>
<version>1.2</version>
<classifier>sources</classifier>
</dependency>

This yields depdency id: javax.faces:jsf-api:jar:sources:1.2

This artifact is resolved from a 1.x Maven repository

<repository>
<snapshots />
<id>java.net</id>
<name>Java.net Maven 1.x Repository for external projects</name>
<url>https://maven-repository.dev.java.net/nonav/repository/</url>
<layout>legacy</layout>
</repository>

And the path to the actual jar is https://maven-repository.dev.java.net/nonav/repository/javax.faces/java-sources/jsf-api-1.2-sources.jar

However, maven 2.0.4 is trying to fetch:

https://maven-repository.dev.java.net/nonav/repository/javax.faces/jars/jsf-api-1.2-sources.jar

This was PEBKAC. The solution was to write the dependency in this manner:

<dependency>
<groupId>javax.faces</groupId>
<artifactId>jsf-api</artifactId>
<version>1.2</version>
<type>java-source</type>
</dependency>

This is not an operator error. If you set the type to java-source, you now won't be able to download the jar
(in your case it probably has worked because previous runs must have downloaded jars to your local repo.)

This inconsistency is really a bug in Maven2 — I'm just not sure where the bug is.
