I tried setting up a multi module project with quarkus. I setup a parent with 3 child modules that all can be started with the quarkus dev mode. However when I try to start quarkus dev mode in the parent pom I get the Exception that it can not be build since it is not packaged as a jar.
Here is my pom

<packaging>pom</packaging>
