Hi,

As I understand, it is PDE that manages Plug-in dependencies and resolves workspace plugins, m2e basically only provides ways for tycho to configure the project correctly.

You should expect the following nature in .project (in addition to java and m2e ones): <nature>org.eclipse.pde.PluginNature</nature>

And following .classpath entry: <classpathentry kind="con" path="org.eclipse.pde.core.requiredPlugins"/>

I haven't used felix bundle plugin, so it might be different from pure tycho based approach.

Thanks!
Your information was enough for me to find what I want via google "maven-bundle-plugin m2e export bundle"

http://www.subshell.com/en/subshell/blog/Referencing-Maven-projects-from-Eclipse-plugins100.html

says to add this for m2e.

After adding this to the three bundle projects, and running Maven > Update Project... on all of them and the RCP plugin, it works as expected.
