Hi Stefan, Thanks for the source [1]! I'm sending this mail also to debian-java, so that anyone can correct me or send their ideas on the matter.

There should be /usr/share/maven-repo/org/yaml/snakeyaml/1.x/ not /usr/share/maven-repo/org/yaml/snakeyaml/debian/ in addition to /usr/share/maven-repo/org/yaml/snakeyaml/1.12/ I don't have a documentation pointer (anyone else has?), but take a look at any other package with similar version e.g. JUnit. > >> Has something gone wrong in the invocation of the maven-debian-helper tools? > > maven-debian-helpers don't. > I tried mh_make on three different packages, they failed every time.

Take a look at [2]. Plus it makes packaging easier to maintain e.g. d/rules file is almost empty! I successfully packaged several packages with mh_make and I'd say maven-debian-helper is getting better with every upgrade. I also think that soname of this package should be libsnakeyaml-java not libyaml-snake-java because of [3] and [4].
