I haven't confirmed yet but I think there may be a bug in the 
dependencies stuff. While you can select different dialects it seems 
that whether you selected jdt or janino it must have one or the other in 
the classpath - which of course is not correct, if you are using the 
MVEL dialect for everything. If you find this to be the case. Someone 
has already opened a jar for this, so watch this jar for when it will be 
fixed and for which versions.
