Tried to build a scala project with sbt. Unresolved dependency with scala-swing

I tried to compile a scala project with sbt. I downloaded the scala binary (2.11.2). The project can be cloned on github. 

git clone git://github.com/scalation/scalation.git scalation

I moved the entire scala binary to the project root and modified the Build.sbt and here's my change.

name := "scalation"

scalaVersion := "2.11.2"

scalaHome := Some(file("scala-2.11.2"))

libraryDependencies += "org.scala-lang" % "scala-swing" % "2.11-1.0.1"

I can see the project is being compiled with the correct binary but after a while it gives me the following error:

module not found: org.scala-lang.modules#scala-swing;2.11-1.0.1

And the version of the scala swing

~/scalation$ ls scala-2.11.2/lib/
scala-swing_2.11-1.0.1.jar

I think there's something wrong with my libraryDependencies.

Let me explain why I made the modification in build.sbt. When I first cloned the project, I followed the instruction and do ./sbt compile It gives me 

/home/pierre/scalation/src/scalation/process/Model.scala:11: not found: object actors
[error] import actors.Actor

Then I realized it cannot find my scala. So I added this line and dragged my scala binary to this project because it's more convenient.

scalaHome := Some(file("scala-2.11.2"))

And when I do ./sbt compile again, it goes through the previous error but gives me another one

[error] (*:update) sbt.ResolveException: unresolved dependency: org.scala-lang#scala-swing;2.11.2: not found
[error] Total time: 3 s, completed Aug 30, 2014 6:04:36 PM

[Updated Answer: INSTALLATION GUIDE] In case someone happens to be interested in this project, the correct installation is here: http://cobweb.cs.uga.edu/~jam/scalation_1.0/INSTALL_SBT.html

The one on github is broken.

Not sure what you are trying to do with those modification, and I never thought you need to copy the whole scala binaries and sbt binaries into your project... but have you at least checked whether that version of scala-swing does exist?

Should it actually be

libraryDependencies += "org.scala-lang.modules" % "scala-swing_2.11" % "1.0.1"

or even

libraryDependencies += "org.scala-lang.modules" %% "scala-swing" % "1.0.1"

?
