Description

I'm getting different transitive dependency scope resolution when building with Maven 3. Transitive dependencies from a provided scope should be resolved to provided according to the docs, but it is resolving to compile as shown below. When building with Maven 2 it works correctly.

I tried to isolate the problem with a simpler scenario, but could only reproduce using the org.apache.xmlgraphics:fop:jar:1.0 dependency.

Maven 3 dependency output snippet:
