Description

In org.apache.ivy.plugins.circular the IgnoreCircularDependencyStrategy class has this constructor:

private IgnoreCircularDependencyStrategy() {
    super("warn");
}

Thus is claiming to be the warn strategy and then clobbers the real warn strategy when it is registered in IvySettings.configureDefaultCircularDependencyStrategies()

I think the fix is to just change the above string to "ignore", so:

private IgnoreCircularDependencyStrategy() {
    super("ignore");
}
