Seam pages.xml file not being used

Question

I'm trying to add breadcrumbs to my site based on this example.

The issue is the action method in the page tag of pages.xml file is never called. I don't know if I have to configure anything in my web.xml. I tried browsing for solution with no good results. Please do help.

I'm using JSF 2, Seam 2.2.2, Tomcat 7 with Eclipse IDE. And all my web files are of .jsp extension. Here is my web.xml file.
