But how to trace it back when the dependency report does not even
mention it. I wonder if I'm actually the only one with this problem?
It's probably not critical since it seems to occur only with the Eclipse
plugin and fixing the build path is easy. But it might point to a deeper
error who the next one hit at a completely different point.
Instead of generating the report, you can use the Maven dependency module
(http://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-dependency-plugin/). The only problem is
that the released version of the module only offers limited functionality.
However, a snapshot release is more helpful. In order to use it, add this
snippet to your Maven pom:
<profiles>
<profile>
<id>use-snapshots</id>
<build>
<plugins>
<plugin>
<artifactId>maven-dependency-plugin</artifactId>
<version>2.0-alpha-5-SNAPSHOT</version>
</plugin>
</plugins>
</build>
<repositories>
<repository>
<id>apache.org</id>
<name>Maven Snapshots</name>
<url>http://people.apache.org/repo/m2-snapshot-repository</url>
<releases>
<enabled>false</enabled>
</releases>
<snapshots>
<enabled>true</enabled>
</snapshots>
</repository>
<repository>
<id>codehaus.org</id>
<name>CodeHaus Snapshots</name>
<url>http://snapshots.repository.codehaus.org</url>
<releases>
<enabled>false</enabled>
</releases>
<snapshots>
<enabled>true</enabled>
</snapshots>
</repository>
</repositories>

<pluginRepository>
<id>apache.org</id>
<name>Maven Plugin Snapshots</name>
<url>http://people.apache.org/repo/m2-snapshot-repository</url>
<releases>
<enabled>false</enabled>
</releases>
<snapshots>
<enabled>true</enabled>
</snapshots>
</pluginRepository>
<pluginRepository>
<id>codehaus.org</id>
<name>Maven Plugin Snapshots (Codehaus)</name>
<url>http://snapshots.repository.codehaus.org</url>
<releases>
<enabled>false</enabled>
</releases>
<snapshots>
<enabled>true</enabled>
</snapshots>
</pluginRepository>
</pluginRepositories>
</profile>
</profiles>
and then run
mvn dependency:tree -P use-snapshots
