This is pom.xml from my library project. I do "mvn clean install" and everything is OK. In my local m2 repo I have apklib artifact.

IntelliJ can see my depedency well, but when I run "mvn clean compile" on main project, I have got: F
ailed to execute goal on project MainApp: Could not resolve dependencies for project com.main.app:MainApp:apk:1.0: Could not find artifact actionbar:artist.android:apklib:1.0
When I use 'systemPath' and use hardcoded path to my artifact, dependency can be found by maven, but I have compilation error and javac don't see any class from library project.
