Bug#756487: libjets3t-java: Cannot be used as build dependency with maven

[Stefan Denker]

Package: libjets3t-java
Version: 0.8.1+dfsg-1
Severity: important
Tags: patch

I am trying to use libjets3t-java as a build dependency on a maven
project. During build, maven always fails with the following error
message: 

,--------
| Missing: 
| ---------- 
| 1) com.jamesmurty.utils:java-xmlbuilder:jar:debian 
|   
|   Try downloading the file manually from the project website. 
|   
|   Then, install it using the command:  
|       mvn install:install-file -DgroupId=com.jamesmurty.utils -DartifactId=java-xmlbuilder -Dversion=debian -Dpackaging=jar -Dfile=/path/to/file 
|   Alternatively, if you host your own repository you can deploy the file there:  
|       mvn deploy:deploy-file -DgroupId=com.jamesmurty.utils -DartifactId=java-xmlbuilder -Dversion=debian -Dpackaging=jar -Dfile=/path/to/file -Durl=[url] -DrepositoryId=[id] 
|   
|   Path to dependency:  
|      1) test.libjets3t:1.0 
|      2) net.java.dev.jets3t:jets3t:jar:0.x 
|      3) com.jamesmurty.utils:java-xmlbuilder:jar:debian 
`-------

According to the pom in the debian maven-repo, jets3t depends on the
"debian" version of libjava-xmlbuilder-java. 

During build of jets3t, the original version string in jets3t's pom is 
changed to "debian" by mh_cleanpom, because there is no rule for this 
dependency. The package libjavabuilder-java although ships no such
version. 

The attached patch adds a rule for java-xmlbuilder to the package. 
Applying this patch and rebuilding jets3t fixes compilation of my 
project.
