Exclude filter not working for filevault-package-maven-plugin
I have a content package with nodes I would like to exclude when this package is installed on AEM 6.5. The exclude configuration is defined in filter.xml (META-INF/vault/filter.xml).
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<workspaceFilter version="1.0">
<filter root="/apps/amzn-biz">
<exclude pattern="/apps/amzn-biz/i18n(.*)"/>
</filter>
<filter root="/apps/sling"/>
</workspaceFilter>
My pom.xml has below configuration

I have tried multiple things by changing my exclude patterns to ./i18n. but it has not worked for me.
I have also tried adding filterSource to filevault-package-maven-plugin configuration but then i get the error Project contains filter.xml in META-INF/vault but also specifies a filter source.
