Best Answer

You should simply uninstall m2eclipse version 0.12.x and retry installation. You are essentially trying to install both m2e and m2eclipse (read: older m2e) together.

My Eclipse JDT and m2e versions are:

Eclipse Java Development Tools  3.7.0.v20110520-0800
m2e - Maven Integration for Eclipse 1.0.0.20110607-2117
