Bug#902530: [error] Cannot resolve Maven dependency javax.servlet:servlet-api:jar:2.2. If you know a package that contains a compatible dependency

[Mathieu Malaterre]

Package: libservlet3.1-java
Version: 8.5.14-1+deb9u2
User: debian-java at lists.debian.org
Usertags: maven-debian-helper

It should be possible to tweak the package to remove the following
from mh_make on user side:

In fop-core/pom.xml: This dependency cannot be found in the Debian
Maven repository. Ignore this dependency?
javax.servlet:servlet-api:jar:2.2
