Hi,

Ubuntu 16.04.1 LTS,
libservlet3.0-java=7.0.68-1ubuntu0.1

In /usr/share/maven-repo/javax/servlet/jsp/jsp-api/2.2/jsp-api-2.2.pom file that belongs to libservlet3.0-java there is the following dependency:

<dependency>
  <groupId>javax.servlet</groupId>
  <artifactId>servlet-api</artifactId>
  <version>2.2</version>
  <scope>compile</scope>
</dependency>

But there is no corresponding javax.servlet:servlet-api:2.2 in /usr/share/maven-repo. So if I try to build some Java library that depends on javax.servlet.jsp:jsp-api:2.2 with mvn-debian, I cannot do it due to wrong transitive dependency.

I've attached a test pom.xml to reproduce the bug:

ubuntu@build:~$ ls -la pom.xml
-rw-rw-r-- 1 ubuntu ubuntu 1185 Feb 13 10:12 pom.xml
ubuntu@build:~$
ubuntu@build:~$ mvn-debian -q generate-sources

I believe that javax.servlet.jsp:jsp-api:2.2 should list javax.servlet:servlet-api:3.0 as dependency, not 2.2
