[fedora-java] mvn-jpp problems

[Mary Ellen Foster]

I'm currently trying to resurrect my efforts to package JabRef and its
dependencies, and I'm finding something that used to build on F10
(i386) is now no longer building on my current F11 (x86_64) box. I'm
not sure which of those two differences is relevant...

Anyway, the package is http://spin.sourceforge.net/, and the errors
I'm currently getting look like this:

% mvn-jpp install
/usr/lib/jvm/java
[INFO] Scanning for projects...
[INFO] ----------------------------------------------------------------------------

[ERROR] BUILD ERROR

[INFO] Error building POM (may not be this project's POM).


Project ID: org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-surefire-plugin

Reason: Error getting POM for
'org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-surefire-plugin' from the repository:
Failed to resolve artifact, possibly due to a repository list that is
not appropriately equipped for this artifact's metadata.
  org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-surefire-plugin:pom:2.4.3

from the specified remote repositories:
  __jpp_repo__ (file:///usr/share/maven2/repository),
  central (http://repo1.maven.org/maven2)


I do have mvn2-plugin-surefire installed, so I'm not sure what's going
on here. The srpms for this and its (not-yet-in-Fedora) dependency
cglib are here:
    http://homepages.inf.ed.ac.uk/mef/srpms/

I know nothing about Maven -- does anyone have an idea what's going on here?

Thanks,

MEF
