Eclipse m2eclipse getting dependencies from local repository

Question

I have dependencies installed local on my machine (~/.m2/repository/blah/blah/blah) and m2eclipse is not recognizing them as there - I think m2eclipse is using its own maven ins

Answer 1

I had the same problem, and this is what worked for me. Using Eclipse Indigo:

Windows->Show View->Other

In the pop-up: Maven->Maven Repositories

Once the view is displayed, right click on the appropriate repo, and select "Rebuild Index"

Wait a few seconds and done!
