I haven't kept up with the latest maven3 developments in
maven-debian-helper, but I do have a branch [1] from a few months ago
left unfinished. I believe the issue I left it with was due to missing
metadata when installing or resolving artifacts in
/usr/share/maven-repo. I didn't want to make big architectural changes
just to finish it, at least not without discussion.
A quick look at the commits in the topic-maven3 branch of the upstream
github repo leads me to suspect it may also suffer from this problem.
