Description

Currently the prepare-package goal is bound to the process-sources phase. According to the Maven build lifecycle , the process-sources phase is used to 'process the source code, for example to filter any values.'.

The goal should be bound by default at a later phase, and the best one IMO is prepare-package, which is used to 'perform any operations necessary to prepare a package before the actual packaging'.

This would also have the side effect of not triggering any m2eclipse errors, which now appear since process-sources is an interesting phase from an IDE point of view.
