Description

dependencyConvergence rule does not take care when you use exclusion with * in your pom.xml

Ex : 
<dependency>
<groupId>aGroupId</groupId>
<artifactId>anArtifactId</artifactId>
<version>aVersion</version>
<classifier>api</classifier>
<exclusions>
<exclusion>
<groupId>*</groupId>
<artifactId>*</artifactId>
</exclusion>
</exclusions>

And the dependencyConvergence says this some problem of dependencies on transitive anArtifactId, it should be not the case as I set exclusion *.

Tell me if it is not clear.
