(Get the code!)
I expect that I am being stupid, but please be patient!
I installed karmic and am in the process of trying to migrate all my development to it... I noticed maven was broken a month ago, but didn't have time to investigate and kept using my old hardy LTS system when necessary. I've now reached the point where maven2 was the ONLY thing left before I can switch over completely and get rid of the hardy system.
I wasn't surprised to find maven was still broken, because I expected it to be a problem with my own configuration. After careful problem determination and fixing what was wrong, maven still wouldn't run at all. I googled and was amazed to hit this bug - karmic was released in November and January is almost gone!
Now the stupid bit.... I think this bug report is telling me there is a fixed version, but synaptic is telling me I have the latest version 2.2.1-1 already installed and there are no alternatives available. Please explain to me: do I need to add another repository, and if yes, what is the APT line that identifies it?
I am happy to try using an unstable release of maven, because the current version is worthless... however, I don't want to risk trashing my existing karmic java development environment that has taken a month to get working properly!
