Re: plexus-utils upgrade
More information on this transition, here is the clirr report detailing
the differences between plexus-utils 1.5.15 and 2.0.5:

The only incompatibility reported by clirr is the removal of the
org.codehaus.plexus.util.interpolation package. This was spinned off in
the plexus-interpolation package.
I searched on codesearch.debian.net for the packages containing an
import statement on the removed interpolation package [1]. Besides
plexus-utils itself there is only one package using the removed classes,
maven-doxia-tools, and it was patched two years ago by Damien to use
plexus-interpolation instead [2].
This is another evidence that upgrading libplexus-utils-java to 2.0.x is
safe, at least at the Java level.
