Re: [m2e-users] manual source location for jar resource m2e

[Igor Fedorenko <igor@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

The steps work just fine with the provided example for me. I tried
several transitions between workspace, external and m2e-provided source
paths, update project configuration, and in all cases sourcepath was as
expected.

Can you confirm you can reproduce the problem with fresh clean install
of Kepler "for java developers" obtained from download.eclipse.org? I
specifically want to eliminate m2e-wtp and thirdparty eclipse plugins as
the cause of the problem.
