Description

The "nested imports" doesn't work on Maven 2.0.9.

When trying to resolve "nested imports", Maven 2.0.9 kind of "forget" about the repositories that are defined in settings.xml and only tries to look up some of artifacts in "central" repository.

Here attaches the sample. The steps to produce this bug under Maven 2.0.9:
1. unzip this zip and it'll create a folder called "sample". There are 5 POM files under there.
2. deploy all sample*.xml to a Maven 2 repository by using "deploy:deploy-file".
3. run "mvn help:effective-pom" and it will fail. The sample/pom.xml imports "sample-1.0.0.0" POM which in turn imports all other sample-pom-[1-3] artifacts. The error messages are as belows. It's trying to look up artifacts ONLY in central repository.

>mvn help:effective-pom
