Sync failing to recognise transient dependency from POM

My POM references spring-boot-starter-data-jpa which pulls in a transient dependency jakarta.xml.bind-api.
If I run mvn spring:run it all works fine but if I sync the POM to IntelliJ I see the following and sure enough, when I attempt to debug, it fails because it's missing the classes. 

If I manually add the lib to the Libraries section of IntelliJ then it works, until I re-synch from the POM.

This is the only dependency that IntelliJ has a problem with, all others are referenced without any issues.

How can I figure out why IntelliJ doesn't like the path to the jar?

Hello, Steve!

Thank you for reporting this!

This issue likely indicates IDEA's caches corruption / inconsistency.

Try resetting the caches:

  1. Close all instances of IDEA
  2. Rename or remove the System Directory
  3. Re-import the Project: Open -> Navigate to the Project's directory -> Double-click the root pom.xml -> Open as Project

If the issue persists, try deleting the affected dependency from Maven Local and running Maven Sync, so IDEA can download a new copy of it.
