Hi Thor, the downloadSources flag is only used by some specific plugins. None of them being bound to the clean or package lifecycles. Depending whether you're using Eclipse or IntellIiJ IDEA you can run:
mvn eclipse:eclipse -DdownloadSources or mvn idea:idea -DdownloadSources This will create the IDE project file for you with the sources maven could download correctly set up. If you don't want to be IDE specific but just download the sources I would suggest using the dependency plugin (http://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-dependency-plugin/): mvn dependency:sources This will simply download the sources for all your dependencies (well at least for those which have sources in the repo).
