Hi Tim,
thank you very much for your reply.
The problem was due to your first suggestion. By simply adding
file:// to the url it worked.
In retrospect I should have know this. Anyway, thank you again.
Regards,
Stefan

Hi,
It's not entirely clear from your description if the build fails becauce
maven can't find the repository at all. Then this syntax might be what
you want:
<url>file://${basedir}/libs</url>
Or if it just fails to retrieve the artifact from the repository. In
that case, remember that a valid remote repository (which your lib-repo
is) must contain the correct metadata.xml files.
