I use IntelliJ Idea. Inside IntelliJ Idea, I want to debug some code inside the class javax.faces.component.UIViewRoot.getViewMap which is provided by the library javaee-web-api.

I command IntelliJ to download sources but IntelliJ says: 

6:21:41 PM Cannot download sources
           Sources not found for:
           javax:javaee-web-api:6.0

I wonder why Maven cannot find the sources for javaee-web-api?

This is the dependency statement in my pom.xml file:

    <dependency>
        <groupId>javax</groupId>
        <artifactId>javaee-web-api</artifactId>
        <version>6.0</version>
        <scope>provided</scope>
    </dependency>

There's no source jar uploaded to maven central for this version of the artifact, see Maven Central. Version 7.0 has got source code jars, if that helps.
