Description

I have the following projects with subprojects projectA, projectB and projectC. projectA depends on projectB, projectC depends on projectB. All projects use classifiers:
...
<artifactId>projectB</artifactId>
<build>
<plugins>
<plugin>
<groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-jar-plugin</artifactId>
<configuration>
<classifier>someclassifier</classifier>
</configuration>
</plugin>
</plugins>
</build>
<dependencies>
<dependency>
<groupId>test</groupId>
<artifactId>projectB</artifactId>
<version>1.0.0</version>
<classifier>someclassifier</classifier>
</dependency>
</dependencies>

When running "mvn clean install" on the the parent works fine. But running "mvn install" only in projectC fails:
