[Solved] Alter ivy.xml file called in as transitive dependency


Ivy allows to exclude specified dependencies from resolution.

This will exclude jaxen from the dependency:

<dependency org="org.jdom" name="jdom" rev="2.0.2">
  <exclude module="jaxen"/>
</dependency>

This will exclude cobertura and findbugs

<dependency org="org.jdom" name="jdom" rev="2.0.2">
  <exclude name="maven-cobertura-plugin" />
  <exclude name="maven-findbugs-plugin" />
</dependency>
