Bug#795853: groovy2: FTBFS with gradle 2.5

[Markus Koschany]

Package: groovy2
Version: 2.4.3+dfsg-1
Severity: important
Tags: patch

I would like to upload gradle 2.5 to unstable and groovy2 currently
fails to build from source.

There are two reasons for that:

The method mavenRepo was replaced by maven in newer versions of gradle
and we also have to switch to bnd1.50 for the time being because this
is the current version in unstable. I saw that Komal had to fix a
similar issue in the past to make groovy2 work with gradle 1.5, so
this is not an upstream bug but a current workaround for Debian.

02_fix_gradle_build.diff is the responsible patch. As soon as bnd 2.x
can be uploaded to unstable, we can simplify or even remove some
patches in groovy2.

For the sake of clarity I have created a new mavenRepo.patch which
takes care of the FTBFS with gradle 2.5.

I intend to upload 2.4.3+dfsg-2 this evening.
