I think the short answer is that guava is arch:all, and so isn't built
by any of the autobuilders.  There's a recent thread on this general
topic on debian-devel [1].

The -5 package still ships a debian version and pom, but it's in
/usr/share/maven-repo/org/jsr-305/jsr-305/debian/jsr-305-debian.pom, the
same location it was found in for -4.  Should there be a debian version
under both org/jsr-305/jsr-305 and com/google/code/findbugs/jsr305 ?

Thank you,
tony
