So, after a debugging session deep down in the python libraries the bug 
is simple: when I install the DecodeIrCaller package, it sets the 
metadata file to 600, so rpmbuild can't read it. It would have been easy 
if it wasn't that the python packages have mis-configured logging so 
there is no reasonable error message.

The python logging is a plain bug I will file. But the mystery is why my 
DecodeIrCaller package installs the metadata for this very package  as a 
600 file.

The relevant pieces:

The spec: http://ur1.ca/js840
The pom: http://ur1.ca/js842

The problem:
$ ls -l /usr/share/maven-metadata/DecodeIrCaller.xml
-rw-------. 1 root root 938 Feb 23 13:02 
/usr/share/maven-metadata/DecodeIrCaller.xml

Has anyone a clue?

Cheers!
