----------------------------------------

             Summary: Nexus validation should not allow artifacts that depend on untyped dependencies that do not exist as a jar type - becuase those artifacts cannot be used in a maven build (only in gradle)
                 Key: JBBUILD-715
                 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBBUILD-715
             Project: JBoss Build System
          Issue Type: Enhancement
          Components: Artifact Repositories
            Reporter: Geoffrey De Smet
            Priority: Critical


This is a compatibility problem between Maven and Gradle.

This artifact should not have nexus validation:
  org.jboss.jdocbook:jdocbook-core:jar:1.0.7
It depends on
  net.sf.docbook:docbook-xml
but this does not exist:
  net.sf.docbook:docbook-xml:jar
only this one exists:
  net.sf.docbook:docbook-xml:pom (or zip IIRC)

Because jdocbook-core was build with gradle and gradle is smarter then maven,
it figured out to resolve the type to pom/zip as needed.

However, when I use jdocbook-core 1.0.7 from a maven build, it crashes:
