Further information on this issue: I earlier reported that my fresh install of Eclipse Mars 2 in a Linux environment did create a Maven Directories entry when executing Maven -> Update Project, but that I noticed a problem with the actual jar files this entry was pointing to and that they were not loaded into my local repo from my remote repo.
It appears this behavior was because I neglected to port my settings.xml file to the .m2 directory and this file contains the credentials to log in to my remote repo. So, I copied my settings.xml file from my Windows environment and updated the location of my local repo in settings.xml with my Linux path to my local repo. Then I removed the Maven Dependencies entry from the Java Build Bath Libraries tab, removed all the directories in my local repo and executed Maven -> Update Project.....; this time I received the same results that I did in my Windows environment where my Eclipse upgrade to Mars 2 was not from a fresh install. Once again, I hope this is helpful. And sorry for any confusion the first post may have caused. I just completely forgot about the settings.xml file.

Thanks.
