Description

I have the following in a child pom:

  <build>
    <plugins>
      <plugin>
        <groupId>org.eclipse.tycho</groupId>
        <artifactId>tycho-bnd-plugin</artifactId>
        <extensions>true</extensions>
      </plugin>
    </plugins>
  </build>

and in the parent:

<pluginManagement>
	<plugins>
		<plugin>
			<groupId>org.eclipse.tycho</groupId>
			<artifactId>tycho-bnd-plugin</artifactId>
			<version>${tycho.version}</version>
		</plugin>
	</plugins>
</pluginManagement>

This gives an warning (and alter an error):
[WARNING] 'build.plugins.plugin.version' for org.eclipse.tycho:tycho-bnd-plugin is missing.

If I write directly in the child

  <build>
    <plugins>
      <plugin>
        <groupId>org.eclipse.tycho</groupId>
        <artifactId>tycho-bnd-plugin</artifactId>
        <version>${tycho.version}</version>
        <extensions>true</extensions>
      </plugin>
    </plugins>
  </build>

it works ... it seems to be triggered by the <extensions>true</extensions> tag here that it then do not look at ate managed version...
