Description

This error doesn't show up on Windows with maven 3 beta-3, Java 1.6.0_21 !!!
This error also doesn't show up with maven 3 beta-2 on Linux and Windows, both Java 1.6.0_21.

I switched from maven 3 beta-2 to beta-3 and got this error.
I deleted the complete .m2/repository/ but nothing changed.

Only on Linux with maven 3 beta-3 I can reproduce this error:
