Description

I have a multimodule project that has the following dependency setup in one of the poms

<nexus-lvo-plugin.version>1.0.2-SNAPSHOT</nexus-lvo-plugin.version>

<dependency>
<groupId>org.sonatype.nexus.plugins</groupId>
<artifactId>nexus-lvo-plugin</artifactId>
<version>${nexus-lvo-plugin.version}</version>
</dependency>

this nexus-lvo-plugin is in the same reactor build as the module above.

In 2.0-beta-8, rather than simply updating the property w/ the release version, the <version> tag in the dependency is updated

leaving

<dependency>
<groupId>org.sonatype.nexus.plugins</groupId>
<artifactId>nexus-lvo-plugin</artifactId>
<version>1.0.2</version>
</dependency>

which causes me to have to update the pom after release is done. this didn't happen in previous release plugin versions
