Scripted adds a library dependency on every project

[jvican]

steps

1. Clone https://github.com/jvican/sbt-library-deps-bug-scripted.
2. Run show libraryDependencies.

problem

Sbt-scripted, which is added as a plugin, add a library dependency to my project?

expectation

Sbt-scripted does not add anything to my projects' library dependencies. Note that my project is not an sbt plugin.

notes

sbt version: all 1.x series.

sbt @ test > show libraryDependencies

It makes sense:

https://github.com/sbt/sbt/blob/v1.1.0/scripted/plugin/src/main/scala/sbt/ScriptedPlugin.scala#L43-L54

    libraryDependencies ++= (partialVersion(scriptedSbt.value) match {
      case Some((0, 13)) =>
        Seq(
          "org.scala-sbt" % "scripted-sbt" % scriptedSbt.value % ScriptedConf,
          "org.scala-sbt" % "sbt-launch" % scriptedSbt.value % ScriptedLaunchConf
        )
      case Some((1, _)) =>
        Seq(
          "org.scala-sbt" %% "scripted-sbt" % scriptedSbt.value % ScriptedConf,
          "org.scala-sbt" % "sbt-launch" % scriptedSbt.value % ScriptedLaunchConf
        )
    }),

combined with #3514.

I don't understand, is this the expected behaviour? This should only happen for those projects that are sbt plugins, not for all my projects.

Right. This behavior is now considered a bug (#3514), and it's now fixed via #3875, so hopefully you won't see this in 1.2.0.
In the mean time, you'd have to disable the plugin on each subprojects.

fixed via #3875
