Dependencies in 3.74.0-05 not in public Maven repos

[nathanagood]

I am trying to build using the command ./mvn clean install -Dpublic as mentioned in the documentation here: https://github.com/sonatype/nexus-public?tab=readme-ov-file#building-from-source on tag release-3.74.0-05. I get the following error:

This failure was cached in the local repository and resolution is not reattempted until the update interval of central has elapsed or updates are forced -> [Help 1]

The project that fails is nexus-testsupport:

[INFO] org.sonatype.nexus:nexus-testsupport ............... FAILURE [  0.198 s]

I would expect the Maven project to build successfully.

Unfortunately recent release of the Groovy Eclipse Compiler aren't published to central. You can find documentation about the project: https://github.com/groovy/groovy-eclipse/wiki/groovy-eclipse-maven-plugin

I understand. Perhaps someone could document the last known tag that works with -Dpublic so we don't have to find it by trial and error?

The Eclipse compiler is publicly available - you can make use of that repository while compiling. We're also in the process of removing classes written with Groovy but I don't know yet when that will be completed

Adding a profile containing the missing plugin repository to my pom.xml based on org.sonatype.nexus.plugins:nexus-plugins:3.75.1-01 works for me:
