Description

1. Unzip testcase
2. Run mvn clean install javadoc:aggregate
3. Build fails with: Exit code: 2 - javadoc: error - No source files for package module2

Per MPLUGIN-341, Maven plugins cannot contain module.info.java. One of my projects builds under Java 11 and is fully modularized except for one module which is a Maven plugin. Due to the aforementioned issue, I cannot use javadoc:aggregate.
