Maven 1.0-rc2 build problems

[Johnny l]

Hey all

I'm a bit new at maven, so bear with me. I'm trying to build geronimo
1.0source and I'm having problems with maven
1.0-rc2 (I would update but the place I'm at runs on maven 1.0.2 and won't
be upgrading). When I build, I keep on getting dependency errors :

Attempting to download commons-jelly-tags-velocity-.jar
WARNING: Failed to download commons-jelly-tags-velocity-.jar
Attempting to download velocity-.jar
WARNING: Failed to download velocity-.jar

commons-jelly-tags-velocity-.jar (no download url specified)
velocity-.jar (no download url specified)


I have the commons-jelly in my user maven repository directory, and it seems
that it just can't seem to find it. Should I change the maven.repo.remote to
my user maven repository directory? Or am I missing something else?  If I
remove the

 <dependencies>
        <!-- Used for preprocessing our plans -->
        <dependency>
            <groupId>commons-jelly</groupId>
            <artifactId>commons-jelly-tags-velocity</artifactId>
            <version>${jelly_velocity_tags_version}</version>
        </dependency>
        <dependency>
            <groupId> velocity</groupId>
            <artifactId>velocity</artifactId>
            <version>${velocity_version}</version>
        </dependency>

from the project.xml file (probably not the solution), it still ends up
giving me a

xmlbeans-maven-plugin-1.0.0-beta1.jar (no download url specified)

Am I totally going about this the wrong way? Thanks for the help!
