Bug#577785: /usr/share/cdbs/1/class/maven-vars.mk: Provide variable DEB_MAVEN_BUILDFILE to specify alternating pom.xml file

[Onkar Shinde]

Package: maven-debian-helper
Version: 0.9
Severity: wishlist
File: /usr/share/cdbs/1/class/maven-vars.mk

ant-vars.mk has a variable DEB_ANT_BUILDFILE which if set from debian/rules file is used as path to an alternate build.xml file. Similar variable (DEB_MAVEN_BUILDFILE) should be defined in maven-var.mk. Currently the only way to specify alternative pom.xml file is to set MAVEN_ARGS in debian/rules to '-f path/to/pom.xml'.
