Maven ignores a repository

I'm unable to get Maven download an artifact

    <dependency>
        <groupId>org.jboss.test-jsf</groupId>
        <artifactId>jsf-mock</artifactId>
        <version>1.1.9</version>
        <scope>test</scope>
    </dependency>

This dependency isn't in the Maven Central. I've added the proper repository to my settings.

<profiles>
    <profile>
        <id>barbucha</id>
    </profile>
    <repositories>
        <repository>
            <id>jboss</id>
            <releases>
                <enabled>true</enabled>
            </releases>
            <snapshots>
                <enabled>true</enabled>
            </snapshots>
            <url>http://repository.jboss.org/nexus/content/groups/public/</url>
        </repository>
    </repositories>
    <pluginRepositories>
        <pluginRepository>
            <id>jboss-plug</id>
            <releases>
                <enabled>true</enabled>
            </releases>
            <snapshots>
                <enabled>true</enabled>
            </snapshots>
            <url>http://repository.jboss.org/nexus/content/groups/public/</url>
        </pluginRepository>
    </pluginRepositories>
</profiles>

Then I build things using the barbucha profile. However maven doesn't use the JBoss repository at all. It tries to get the missing dependency from Central instead. It tries to download the dependency twice and then fails:

[INFO] Downloading: http://repo.maven.apache.org/maven2/org/jboss/test-jsf/jsf-mock/1.1.9/jsf-mock-1.1.9.pom
[WARNING] The POM for org.jboss.test-jsf:jsf-mock:jar:1.1.9 is missing, no dependency information available
[INFO] Downloading: http://repo.maven.apache.org/maven2/org/jboss/test-jsf/jsf-mock/1.1.9/jsf-mock-1.1.9.jar
[INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------
[INFO] BUILD FAILURE
[INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------
[ERROR] Failed to execute goal on project: Could not resolve dependencies for project: Could not find artifact org.jboss.test-jsf:jsf-mock:jar:1.1.9 in central (http://repo.maven.apache.org/maven2) -> [Help 1]

The behavior is very strange and sadly critical to me. I googled a long time, but nothing found, what can cause the problem. The only reason can be the profile if not activated. But that isn't my case.

Oh, it was so simple - my settings are just malformed:

<profiles>
    <profile>
        <id>barbucha</id>
    </profile> <<< this must be at the end (at <!-- #1 --->)
    <repositories>
    ... <!-- this part must be inside of profile -->
    </pluginRepositories>
    <!-- #1 --->
</profiles>

I apologize. (Hopefully it may help to someone.)
