I’m using Apache Maven3 and since two or three days some dependencies can’t be resolved any more, which first have not had a problem. To be more specific its:

maven-findbgs-plugin:plugin:1.3.1
maven-cobertura-plugin:plugin:1.3

Shouldn’t they be included by maven itself?

My pom.xml file:

You should add those two plugins to your pom.

For cobertura, see this page.

For findbugs, see this page.

—– UPDATED —–

OK, I found the problem. It appears that you depend on jdom 1.1.2, which depends on jaxen 1.1.3 of which artifact is broken.

You can either try another jdom version or add to your pom the snapshot described in this site. Worked for me when I ran your pom on my PC. I copied the snapshot:

<dependency>
  <groupId>jaxen</groupId>
  <artifactId>jaxen</artifactId>
  <version>1.1.3</version>
  <!-- http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/JAXEN-217 -->
  <exclusions>
    <exclusion>
      <groupId>maven-plugins</groupId>
      <artifactId>maven-cobertura-plugin</artifactId>
    </exclusion>
    <exclusion>

      <artifactId>maven-findbugs-plugin</artifactId>
    </exclusion>
  </exclusions>
</dependency>
