Bug description:
Binary package hint: javacc

Hello,
the POM file for javacc, located
at /usr/share/maven-repo/net/java/dev/javacc/javacc/debian/javacc-debian.pom , lists the artifact junit:junit:jar:debian as a dependency. This causes FTBFS on packages depending on javacc.

        <dependencies>
                <dependency>
                        <groupId>junit</groupId>
                        <artifactId>junit</artifactId>
                        <version>debian</version>
                        <scope>compile</scope>
                </dependency>
        </dependencies>

AFAICT, that "debian" should be substituted with "3.x".

I'm attaching a patch, which explicitely substitutes the 3.8.* version in the POM with a "3.x" -- which is in the "junit" package indeed.
