This isn't the first time we see this error since the switch to Maven 3
and I've just figured out why it happens: Maven 3 injects a dependency
on plexus-utils 1.1 to any plugin (here paranamer-maven-plugin) that
doesn't declare a dependency on it already. And since we don't have the
version 1.1 in Debian the resolution fails.

The class responsible for this injection is PlexusUtilsInjector [1] in
the Maven project, we just have to redefine it to use plexus-utils 2.x
instead of 1.1 to fix this class of issues. I'll do that in the next
update of maven-debian-helper.
