Please excuse for my ignorance but it seems that I need more detailed
advise. I applied this to the previosely suggested pom.xml (see
attachment) but now I get
$ $ mvn package

I also have no idea how to follow this hint:
$ apt-cache policy maven2
maven2:
Installiert: 2.2.1-5
Kandidat: 2.2.1-5
Versionstabelle:
*** 2.2.1-5 0
501 http://debian.tu-bs.de/debian/ testing/main amd64 Packages
50 http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian/ unstable/main amd64 Packages
100 /var/lib/dpkg/status
What more recent version do you mean?
Thanks for your patience
Andreas.
