Thanks Ludovic. It works. I didn't try to change 3rd field in something
else than "jar".
But it seems we can't play with .x versions ie. s/.*/1.x/, isn't it?
The ideal would be to satisfy dependency even if plugin version became
1.1.2 or 1.2 or at least to have a choice between strict (1.1.1) and
permissive (1.x).
