This is caused by the order of the modules is the reactor:
<modules>
<module>archetype-models</module>
<module>archetype-common</module>
<module>maven-archetype-plugin</module>
<module>archetype-packaging</module>
</modules>The version is being resolved before archetype-packaging is available in the context. This should become lazy resolution.
