Hello,

Some libraries (e.g. Jython) are packaged for Debian, but don't use Maven.
In these cases it may be that nothing is installed into
/usr/share/maven-repo.


How should Maven projects which reference such dependencies be packaged?
According to the spec [0], <scope> and <systempath> should be used to
reference such jars. But this appears not to work in practice ([1]).

I suspect I'm not the first person to want to reference a library without
an entry in $REPO, so I'm wondering how this is normally handled?

Thanks.

Christopher
