Local p2 repository broken after new jar added - eclipse

Question

I created a local p2 repository using
java -jar c:\\eclipse_neon\\plugins\\org.eclipse.equinox.launcher_1.3.201.v20161025-1711.jar -application org.eclipse.equinox.p2.publisher.FeaturesAndBundlesPublisher -metadataRepository file:/C:/p2/my_repo-4.0.x/repository -artifactRepository file:/C:/p2/my_repo-4.0.x/destination -source /C:/p2/my_repo-4.0.x/source -publishArtifacts
Right after that I'm trying to use mvn clean install and get the following error:
[WARNING] No explicit target runtime environment configuration. Build is platform dependent.
[INFO] Adding repository http://download.eclipse.org/releases/latest
[INFO] Adding repository file:/C:/p2/my_repo-4.0.x/repository

[INFO] {osgi.os=win32, osgi.ws=win32, org.eclipse.update.install.features=true, osgi.arch=x86_64}
[ERROR] Cannot resolve project dependencies:

[ERROR] Missing requirement: org.apache.aries.blueprint 0.3.0 requires 'java.package; org.apache.aries.util [0.3.0,1.0.0)' but it could not be found
Obviously I need to add a missing dependency which is org.apache.aries.util. In my case this dependency is org.apache.aries.util-0.3.jar. After that I rebuild my p2 repository using the same command as above and mvn clean install shows the below error:

[ERROR]
It's strange that maven can't find my repository after org.apache.aries.util-0.3.jar being added. If I remove this jar and rebuild the repo again, I get the very first error that org.apache.aries.util is missing and maven able to find my repo again.
I have ~100 dependencies in this repository but only org.apache.aries.util-0.3.jar causes this problem with maven.
I add repositories in pom.xml using this code:
<repositories>
<repository>
<id>eclipse-release</id>
<url>${eclipse-repo.url}</url>
<layout>p2</layout>
</repository>
<repository>
<id>my_repo-4.0.x</id>
<url>file:/C:/p2/my_repo-4.0.x/repository</url>
<layout>p2</layout>
</repository>
</repositories>
category.xml for my repository looks like this:
<site>
<category-def name="my_repo-4.0.x" label="my_repo-4.0.x"/>
<iu>
<category name="my_repo-4.0.x"/>
<query><expression type="match">providedCapabilities.exists(p | p.namespace == 'osgi.bundle')</expression></query>
</iu>
</site>
The structure of my repository is like this:
C:.
|
+---p2
|
+---my_repo-4.0.x
|
+-----destination
| | artifacts.xml
| |
| +---plugins
| //Other jars
| org.apache.aries.blueprint_0.3.0.jar
| org.apache.aries.proxy_0.3.0.jar
| org.apache.aries.util_0.3.0.jar
|
|
+------------repository
| content.xml
|
+------------source
| category.xml
|
+---features
+---plugins
//Other jars
org.apache.aries.blueprint-0.3.jar
org.apache.aries.proxy-0.3.jar
org.apache.aries.util-0.3.jar
So the question is why org.apache.aries.util-0.3.jar brakes the repository?
I tried to download this file manually from maven repository as I thought the jar might be broken or corrupted.
Also I tried to use 0.3.1 version of org.apache.aries.*
These didn't help me.
