Can anyone help me with this in solving this issues? Thanks

From the output it seems maven can not find the com.springsource.org:junit:jar:4.8.1 dependency one of your other dependencies needs.
With a quick check it seems the dependency com.host.kernel:kernelMerged:1.13.1 could cause this problem because the other once did not have springsource as transitive dependency and I can not resolve the kernelMerged one with your config.
The com.springsource libraries are located in the springsource repo. So could you check the kernelMerged dependencies and his repo config and try to add the springsource repo to your pom.
