Maven dependencies. Asking for aws-java-sdk jar 1.6.8 but getting 1.5.0

Question

I'v declared the dependency for com.amazonaws:aws-java-sdk:jar:1.6.8, but I'm getting jar 1.5.0.
While running mvn dependency:tree, I see the following line:

com.amazonaws:aws-java-sdk:jar:1.5.0:compile (version managed from 1.6.8)

What does it mean? How do I resolve it and actuaully get 1.6.8?

use google :) see [maven-remove-a-single-transitive-dependency](http://stackoverflow.com/questions/816858/maven-remove-a-single-transitive-dependency) — linski, Dec 11 '13 at 10:02

It means that in your pom.xml or in the parent of your pom.xml, their a dependencyManagement section that declares that the version of com.amazonaws:aws-java-sdk must be the 1.5.0.

I thought so too, but still - I don't see it. I'll keep digging deeper in. Thx! – Eldad Assis Dec 11 '13 at 16:12
You can try `mvn help:effective-pom | more` and check if a `dependencyManagement` section appears. – YMomb Dec 12 '13 at 11:37
