Hello Igor,

I think I finally discovered the problem. The pax-construct scripts do
create pom files which use the maven-bundle-plugin, but these don't get
recognized by m2e.
When I create a project from scratch using the maven project wizard and try
to import this pom everything works fine.
The only difference between the 2 pom files is that the working pom file
has <extensions>true</extensions> on the maven-bundle-plugin.
Default this value is false, after enabling it on the pax created pom file,
import works fine (even without the tycho project configurator) .

I am fairly new to maven and m2e, this setting is required? And if so, is
this documented?

Thanks for your pointers.
