Eclipse M2: requires 'bundle org.hamcrest 0.0.0' but it could not be found

When trying to install M2 plugin to Helios the following error was thrown:
Cannot complete the install because one or more required items could not be found.
  Software being installed: m2e - Maven Integration for Eclipse Update Site 1.0.100.20110804-1717 (org.eclipse.m2e.site.feature.group 1.0.100.20110804-1717)
  Missing requirement: Maven Integration Tests Plug-in 1.0.100.20110804-1717 (org.eclipse.m2e.integration.tests.common 1.0.100.20110804-1717) requires 'bundle org.hamcrest 0.0.0' but it could not be found
