Maven assembly plugin not loading dependency from local repository

Question

I am trying to build a parent project containing several sub-modules and a "packaging" sub-module - exactly as described under https://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-assembly-plugin/examples/multimodule/module-binary-inclusion-simple.html

The sub-modules get built and installed in the local repository, but when the "packaging" sub-module gets built, maven complains about not being able to find one of the other sub-modules - instead it tries to download it from the Central Maven Nexus (where it can't find it, of course).

Anyone have an idea what I could be missing?
