I did remove my local repository files (~/.m2/repository/...) and did an "mvn install" and got this exact problem myself!
I'm however completely failing to understand why. I tried to add "<relativePath>..</relativePath> to the "install" module but that made no difference and since ".." is the one and only relative path to the parent it should make no difference, so I guess that was correct :-). And why does it start with trying to download the pom of the project I'm building. It is available right there in the catalog I'm standing in when running "mvn install". It should be downloading its parent pom, which it does and succeeds with, but it should not be trying to download itself since it is already running itself, and thus already have itself. Do note that the top parent (the one being successfully downloaded) does not contain any modules! It only provides plugins, properties, etc. It has no knowledge of its children.
