Description

We use version ranges for dependencies on our internal artifacts.
We also have dependency:tree goal bound to the verify phase in the lifecycle for all our projects. That way, we can always have a quick look at the CI build logs in order to find our what dependency versions had the project build pulled in.
The problem is that the invocation of dependency plugin sporadically fails with a dependency resolution exception, even though the entire build up to the verify phase went through without issues, and it can be seen that the artifact in question was correctly resolved by Maven from the specified version range.
It looks like some non-deterministic ordering issue (unlikely a race condition, because we don't run Maven in a concurrent mode). When the CI job is re-run, the issue disappears.
Exception trace looks as follows (artifact names had to be obfuscated):
