I tried that but it didn't work.

Maybe I filed a bug in the wrong package or this is not a bug
but I observed this:

slf4j-parent POM points to log4j:log4j:1.2.x as dependency.

liblog4j-1.2-java 1.2.15-11 (unstable) provides
/usr/share/maven-repo/log4j/log4j/1.2.x/log4j-1.2.x.pom

liblog4j-1.2-java 1.2.16-1 (experimental) doesn't
provide that file anymore.

I believe that when I build libhibernate3-java I end dereferencing
that dependency due to slf4j-parent artifact and my build fails.

Maybe the bug is in libhibernate3-java, liblog4j1.2-java or
libslf4j-java, but I think there is something odd somewhere.

I'll look again at this more closely tomorrow or during the week.

Cheers,
