dpkg -L maven2

The above command will tell you where maven is installed.
Alternatively look it up online at packages.ubuntu.com and click
through to see the files installed:-

http://packages.ubuntu.com/lucid/all/maven2/filelist

Looks like the binary goes in /usr/share/maven2/bin

So I'd set MAVEN_HOME to /usr/share/maven2
