• JRuby FTBFS from missing Maven plugin

    Hello,

    I've been trying to figure out bug #1091127 [0] but I'm stumped:

    [ERROR] Plugin org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-assembly-plugin:3.7.1 or
    one of its dependencies could not be resolved

    There was no change to the source, so I believe this error might have
    been triggered by the Maven updates that were made lately in Debian.

    In the JRuby source package, I had simply been patching out the plugin
    version [1] and it was working out fine, but now something is requesting version "3.7.1" of this plugin and I have no idea where or why or what.

    If I instead patch in the real version of maven-assembly-plugin that's available in Debian, "3.4.2", then the build works.

    I'd appreciate some guidance as to what's the correct way to fix this.

    Thanks!
