I created a new simple Maven project in a new Workspace.
When I open the pom.xml's Dependencies view in Eclipse editor, and I choose Add.. dependency, there's no search results no matter what search criteria I input in the search fields:
It instantly give me, for example, Results for 'spring' (0).
In my other workspace, with my existing projects I don't have this problem.
Is there a way to fix that ?
