subject  Re: unused dependencies

would like to know if there is a way to check automatically what
are the unused dependencies.

There’s dependency-analyzer:analyze in the sandbox: https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/maven/sandbox/plugins/maven-dependency-analyzer-plugin/ which can provide this information. It requires: https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/maven/sandbox/shared/maven-dependency-analyzer/ You’ll have to build from source, but it’s pretty easy to do.

Versions
