Bug#841363: junit4: FTBFS (Plugin org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-enforcer-plugin:1.4.1 or one of its dependencies could not be resolved)

[Santiago Vila]

Package: src:junit4
Version: 4.12-4
Severity: serious

Dear maintainer:

I tried to build this package in stretch with "dpkg-buildpackage -A"
(which is what the "Arch: all" autobuilder would do to build it)
but it failed:

I have already reported a bug like this in other packages.
See Bug #841197 for a likely fix.

Thanks.
