That's easily doable and up for discussion. Any opinion is
valuable. (For compatibility with Debian I would probably create
Maven repository in /usr/share/maven-repo/ not in %javadir)
I can live with that.
I have been proposing this change for about 43 years, so please
consider it "proposed" for appreciation in the mtg :-)
With XMvn this kind of change doesn't require changes to
packages,
just approving by Java SIG and implementing this in XMvn itself.
That's one of great advantages of not installing files manually
but letting a specialized tool care about file installation.
Note that we need to handle Ant builds too.
