Unresolved requirement: Require-Bundle, but no problems are detected when validating plug-ins

Question

I inherited an Eclipse RCP application (org.eclipse.e4.ui.workbench.swt.E4Application) from a colleague.

I tried to launch the application through MyApp.product > Launch an Eclipse application but the application won't run and this is an excerpt of the stack trace:

Note that when I click on Run configurations > Plug-ins > Validate Plug-ins no problems are detected:

I expected the problems to be detected while validating plug-ins since the stack trace above suggests there are issues due to (missing?) plug-ins. How can I solve? In case you need it, this is the MANIFEST.MF file:

In the stack trace the first error is:

Unresolved requirement: Require-Bundle: net.sf.jasperreports.samples; bundle-version="6.12.0"

So, according to this answer, I navigated to MyApp.product > Contents and tried to Add net.sf.jasperreports.samples, but no plug-in is detected:

Also, I hit Add required plug-ins but this won't fix.
