Change in default behaviour in maven-debian-helper

Hi Team

I've noticed a change in behaviour in the latest version of
maven-debian-helper in Debian unstable and I wanted to validate that
this was intentional.

Prior to 1.5 of mdh, jars where by default installed into
/usr/share/maven-repo and symbolic links created in /usr/share/java -
this was not strictly compliant with the Debian Java Policy.

This was fixed under http://bugs.debian.org/636660; however unless the
- --java-lib option is specified in the libXXX-java.poms file then the
jar file ONLY gets installed into /usr/share/maven-repo.

I don't think that earlier versions of mh_make automatically added
this option to the generated libXXX-java.poms file so I suspect that
this may change/break quite a few packages.  I have seen a couple already:

http://pad.lv/935254
http://bugs.debian.org/660653

I wanted to validate that this was the desired/required behaviour and
not a bug before I start fixing things up by adding --java-lib flags.

Cheers

James
