Description

The apache-dist profile generates a file DEPENDENCIES that is added to the release archive, yet this file is not excluded from the maven-rat plugin.

[ERROR] Failed to execute goal org.apache.rat:apache-rat-plugin:0.11:check (default-cli) on project apache-taverna-parent: Too many files with unapproved license: 1 See RAT report in: C:\Users\stain\Desktop\apache-taverna-parent-2-incubating-source-release\apache-taverna-parent-2-incubating\target\rat.txt -> [Help 1]

Note that mvn apache-rat:check works fine during the build and from the regular source code repositories, as it then does not contain the file DEPENDENCIES.

The file DEPENDENCIES is a bit pointless within particularly maven-parent, but this issue also affects the taverna-osgi release candidate, which does not have its own custom apache-rat excludes.
