The reproduce go to ~/.m2/repository/commons-io/commons-io/1.0/ and invoke maven install:install-file -Dfile=commons-io-1.0.jar. commons-io-1.0.jar will be empty afterwards.

Maybe a validation is needed, when a user tries to install an artifact from the local repository itself, the installation wont continue

Applied, with a small change. Thanks, Allan, and sorry for the misattribution in the SVN log!

The change was to throw a MojoFailureException instead of merely logging such a failure to the error message-level.
