Bug#726609: maven-debian-helper: Using wrong path to mvnDebug when checking if apt-file

[Alexander Holupirek]

Package: maven-debian-helper
Version: 1.6.5
Severity: normal
Tags: patch

mh_make checks if apt-file is configured.
For that purpose it searches for /usr/bin/mvnDebug using apt-file.
However, mvnDebug can never be found that way as it is nowadays available at /usr/share/maven/bin/mvnDebug.
As such, mh_make always issues an update just to recognize that its 'Index is up-to-date.'
The following patch resolves the issue.
