So what you are saying is that anything that is built using maven can't be used in any distro ?


I have some experience packaging for Debian in the Java team. The consensus is that Maven is preferred, but each dependency a package has, must itself be built from source and therefore available as a Debian package.

The only dependency not available in Debian is waffle-jna. Given this is an authentication provider for Windows it will never get packaged, so the maintainer will have to patch this out of pgjdbc in order to package the latest version of the driver.
