sure, but thus these jars should be considered broken/unsupported.
It's just luck if we find them.

https://issues.jboss.org/browse/PLINK is picket link jira.

If the metadata is missing they must have deliberately removed this from their build.

when you open a bug add me to watch or simply paste the link here.

Yes and when you use EAP there won't be any repo index available to lookup in so that won't work there either.

Thus its fine we got this SHA1 as a "backup" but I would say we should show a dialog saying we could not find
this based on raw metadata, and ask if user is ok looking through the various known nexus repositories.
(and provide a "Remember my choice" option)

That way we exposed and get to know which artifacts has issues and can report them accordingly.
