RFS: maven-javadoc-plugin, maven-jar-plugin, maven-dependency-plugin, maven2-core, maven2

[Emmanuel Bourg <ebourg@apache.org>]

Hi all,

I'm looking for a sponsor to upload a new version of
maven-javadoc-plugin, maven-jar-plugin, maven-dependency-plugin,
maven2-core and maven2.

The new version of the Javadoc plugin fixes bugs breaking complex multi
modules projects like Guice. I couldn't push the upgrade up to the
latest 2.9.1 version because it requires an update of maven-plugin-tools
to 3.1 or later (see #691932).

As I was investigating another build failures with Guice I tried to
upgrade maven-jar-plugin and maven-dependency-plugin. Unfortunately it
didn't help, but that's still two updated packages.

These plugins being a core Maven plugins, an update of maven2-core and
maven2 is also required.

Here are the changelogs,

maven-javadoc-plugin/2.8-1:

  * New upstream release
  * debian/control:
    - Updated Standards-Version to 3.9.4 (no changes)
    - Use canonical URLs for the Vcs-* fields
    - Removed Michael Koch from the uploaders (Closes: #654112)
  * debian/copyright: Updated to the Copyright Format 1.0
  * Build depend on debhelper >= 9
  * Use XZ compression for the upstream tarball
  * Documented the procedure to update the core Maven plugins in
README.source
