Problem

When you migration you project from the parent pom io.wcm.maven:io.wcm.maven.aem-global-parent from version 1.1.x to 1.2.x you have to do some adjustments to your project.

The default definition of Adobe's content-package-maven-plugin has changed to allow switching to wcmio-content-package-maven-plugin for building content packages.

When you update your parent pom Dependency your project build will fail with an error message like this:

$ mvn clean install
