Spring Boot - updated from 1.2.3.Release to 1.5.0.RELEASE

I updated following:

<parent>
    <groupId>org.springframework.boot</groupId>
    <artifactId>spring-boot-starter-parent</artifactId>
    <version>1.2.3.RELEASE</version>
</parent>

to 

<parent>
    <groupId>org.springframework.boot</groupId>
    <artifactId>spring-boot-starter-parent</artifactId>
    <version>1.5.0.RELEASE</version>
</parent>

and afterwards I started maven with:

mvn clean install -DskipTests

and I got this trace in the console, which mentions a non parsable POM:

[INFO] Scanning for projects...
[ERROR] [ERROR] Some problems were encountered while processing the POMs:

Does anyone know what I am doing wrong, the content in 

C:\Users\05906\.m2\repository\org\springframework\boot\spring-boot-starter-parent\1.5.0.RELEASE

seems ok.

Please check end of your pom.xml file (spring-boot-dependencies-1.5.0.RELEASE.pom) on line 2606. It should only contain a </project>, but seems to have something starting with an 'r' after it.

If it is corrupted, you can easily fix it, by just removing it from the .m2 folder and letting Maven redownload it on the next build.

Other ways this issue could occur is if you have an old Maven version, and there is some construct in the pom.xml it does not yet now, but this is not the case for you.
