why doesn't this ear find his dependencies?

Question

I just mavenised some project. I was using ant before and it has following structure:

MYPROJECT/ pom.xml (ear) MYPROJECT-EJB pom.xml MYPROJECT-WAR pom.xml

If I build the ejb and jar projects, it works. If I clean everything and starts from the ear, it doesn't. Here is what I got with 'maven clean install' from jenkins:

[WARNING] The POM for be.valuya.myproject:myproject-ejb:jar:1.0-SNAPSHOT is missing, no dependency information available [WARNING] The POM for be.valuya.myproject:myproject-war:war:1.0-SNAPSHOT is missing, no dependency information available [WARNING] The POM for be.valuya.myproject:myproject-ws:war:1.0-SNAPSHOT is missing, no dependency information available

BTW, I don't know how it's supposed to find those dependencies, but that's what I'd want.

Here is my ear's pom.xml:

Made a superpom. Much better, although still not perfect (but I'll ask in another question).

why doesn't this ear find his dependencies?
