installation - How to skip install phase in Maven build if I already have this version installed in repo

Question

I have a project that consist of 3 different libraries. When I run install script it takes all libraries from repo and run mvn clean install on them. But this version of library already installed in repo. Is there a way to skip install phase if version in pom.xml equal version in my local repo.

I know that I can use local repo and just set dependencies. But my boss want that our project can build only with public repos and without any our repos.

You can bypass like this

-Dmaven.install.skip=true

<profiles>
   <profile>
     <id>skipInstall</id>
     <activation>
       <property>
         <name>maven.install.skip</name>
         <value>true</value>
       </property>
     </activation>
     <build>
       <pluginManagement>
         <plugins>
           <plugin>
             <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
             <artifactId>maven-install-plugin</artifactId>
             <executions>
               <execution>
                 <id>default-install</id>
                 <phase>none</phase>
               </execution>
             </executions>
           </plugin>
         </plugins>
       </pluginManagement>
     </build>
   </profile>

Last week Olivier Lamy patched this jira.
