The deployment artifact ${rootDeploymentGact} depends on the

Error message

The deployment artifact ${rootDeploymentGact} depends on the following Quarkus extension deployment artifacts whose corresponding runtime artifacts were not found among the dependencies of ${project.getArtifact()}:

What it means

After collecting the deployment artifact's dependency tree, the mojo verifies every Quarkus deployment dependency has a matching runtime dependency among the project's runtime dependencies. If some deployment deps lack runtime counterparts, it builds this detailed error listing them (via highlightInTree) and fails.

Solutions

1. Add the missing runtime dependencies (e.g. io.quarkus:quarkus-xyz) matching each listed deployment artifact
2. Keep deployment and runtime dependency lists in sync when adding cross-extension dependencies
3. Use quarkus-maven-plugin extension scaffolding which generates matched pairs
4. Run mvn dependency:tree on both runtime and deployment modules to compare

Example fix

<!-- before: deployment-only dep -->
<dependency>
  <groupId>io.quarkus</groupId>
  <artifactId>quarkus-xyz-deployment</artifactId>
</dependency>
<!-- after: add runtime counterpart -->
<dependency>
  <groupId>io.quarkus</groupId>
  <artifactId>quarkus-xyz</artifactId>
</dependency>
<dependency>
  <groupId>io.quarkus</groupId>
  <artifactId>quarkus-xyz-deployment</artifactId>
</dependency>

mvn dependency:tree -pl runtime
diff <(mvn -q dependency:tree -pl runtime) <(mvn -q dependency:tree -pl deployment)

When it happens

Trigger: The deployment module of the extension depends on io.quarkus:<something>-deployment but the runtime module/pom does not declare the corresponding io.quarkus:<something> runtime artifact.

Common situations: Adding a dependency on another extension's deployment artifact without adding its runtime artifact; version drift after refactoring; manually edited poms missing runtime counterpart.
