Binary package “maven-repo-helper” in ubuntu kinetic

Helper tools for including Maven metadata in Debian packages

 This package enables Debian packages which are not using Maven in their
 build process to provide and install Maven POMs and libraries in the
 repository located in /usr/share/maven-repo.
 .
 Packages built with Maven (using maven-debian-helper) will benefit as
 many of their dependencies are already packaged in Debian but they are
 missing the necessary metadata (Maven POM) which is required by Maven
 when it is using dependencies.
 .
 A tutorial is available at /usr/share/doc/maven-repo-helper/tutorial.html
