Bug#577704: Confirming bug in libsurefire-java

[David Paleino]

Hello,
(CCing a bug report on a package I maintain).

I'm facing this too, ultimately causing a FTBFS in libtomcat-maven-plugin-java:

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


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

Reason: POM 'org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-surefire-plugin' not found in
repository: System is offline.

  org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-surefire-plugin:pom:2.4.3


 for project org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-surefire-plugin


The strange thing is "2.4.3" seems mentioned nowhere:

  $ pwd
  /deb/git/my/tomcat-maven-plugin
  $ grep -inR 2.4.3 *
  $ find /usr/share/maven-repo/ -name "*.pom" | xargs grep 2.4.3

I can't really understand what's going on here.

Kindly,
David
