Hey Kimchy,  
Looks like there is an issue with the current POM:  
[https://oss.sonatype.org/content/repositories/releases/org/elasticsearch/elasticsearch/0.19.0.RC2/elasticsearch-0.19.0.RC2.pom](https://oss.sonatype.org/content/repositories/releases/org/elasticsearch/elasticsearch/0.19.0.RC2/elasticsearch-0.19.0.RC2.pom)

I see this entry:  
  
sigar  
sigar  
1.6.4  
system  
/Users/kimchy/work/elasticsearch/elasticsearch/lib/sigar/  
sigar-1.6.4.jar  
true

mvn ends up giving this error when building against it:  
[ERROR] 'dependencies.dependency.systemPath' for sigar:sigar:jar must  
specify an absolute path but is /Users/kimchy/work/elasticsearch/  
elasticsearch/lib/sigar/sigar-1.6.4.jar @

Thanks!  
Paul

Do you get this with the maven eclipse plugin?

Thanks David, should have searched for that before posting.

I'm using mvn command line. Will keep track of things via that  
ticket.

Best Regards,
