Description

When a build fails with missing dependencies, the error message given is a plain single line concatenated to unreadable blob.

[ERROR] Failed to execute goal on project jboss-as-testsuite: Could not resolve dependencies for project org.jboss.as:jboss-as-testsuite:pom:7.1.3.Final-redhat-1: The following artifacts could not be resolved: org.picketlink:picketlink-core:jar:2.1.1.Final, org.picketlink.distribution:picketlink-jbas7:jar:2.1.1.Final, org.picketbox:picketbox:jar:4.0.9.Final, org.picketbox:picketbox-commons:jar:1.0.0.final, org.picketbox:picketbox-infinispan:jar:4.0.9.Final: The repository system is offline but the artifact org.picketlink:picketlink-core:jar:2.1.1.Final is not available in the local repository. -> [Help 1]

It would be very useful if this was nicely formated in format such as:

[ERROR] Failed to execute goal on project jboss-as-testsuite: 
  Could not resolve dependencies for project org.jboss.as:jboss-as-testsuite:pom:7.1.3.Final-redhat-1:
  The following artifacts could not be resolved:
    org.picketlink:picketlink-core:jar:2.1.1.Final
    org.picketlink.distribution:picketlink-jbas7:jar:2.1.1.Final
    org.picketbox:picketbox:jar:4.0.9.Final
    org.picketbox:picketbox-commons:jar:1.0.0.final

  The repository system is offline but the artifact org.picketlink:picketlink-core:jar:2.1.1.Final is not available in the local repository. -> [Help 1]
