Try mvn -U to force an update. If it still is failing, delete the
~/.m2/ directory (if not the whole thing, delete the
org/apache/maven/plugins directory) and try again.
The "plugin does not exist or no valid version could be found" error
sometimes happens when you get "bad" artifacts in your m2 cache.
Usually, that happens when you're using a "bad" or incorrectly
configured mirror, or you've got a misconfigured proxy etc.

repo and the dep is in there!?

maven-help-plugin has some of that:

In particular, check out the effective-pom mojo in help, and
