Description

**[Elliotte Rusty Harold](https://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/ViewProfile.jspa?name=elharo)** opened **[ARCHETYPE-692](https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARCHETYPE-692?redirect=false)** and commented

archetype-packaging/src/main/resources/META-INF/plexus/components.xml

Not clear this one can simply be deleted. Is it used somehow? If so, what is the Guice equivalent?

Also need to deal with archetype-packaging/src/site/apt/archetype-packaging.apt.vm

Research direction

Start by inspecting archetype-packaging/src/main/resources/META-INF/plexus/components.xml and searching the repository for references to it. Then read archetype-packaging/src/site/apt/archetype-packaging.apt.vm to identify the documentation that also needs attention. Done means confirming whether components.xml is used, determining the Guice equivalent if necessary, and updating or removing both items safely.
