Packaging Graylog2/unpackaged jar dependencies

[W. Michael Petullo]

I am interested in packaging the Graylog2 log analysis platform for
Fedora. I have created a number of Fedora packages in the past, but I
am a novice when it comes to packaging Java.

When I try to build my Graylog2 package, rpmbuild warns me that a number
of dependencies are missing from the package specification (see below).

I can build Graylog2 by hand using Maven, but of course this downloads
the requisite files to ~/.m2.

There is also at least one case of a package in Fedora which is
incompatible with the API version Graylog2 expects (okhttp). Isn't this
API-versioning mess common in Java? I vaguely recall there are a number
of tools to help manage this. How does Fedora expect package managers
to deal with this?

Is there a way to include these JAR files in the package, or is it
necessary to get each of these included as a Fedora package?
