jempbox missing from Apache Maven repo?

[Ken Krugler <kk...@transpac.com>]

Has anybody else noticed that Maven never finds jempbox when resolving  
dependencies?

If I look in the Apache snapshots repo:

https://repository.apache.org/content/groups/snapshots-group/org/apache/pdfbox/

...I see it has pdfbox and fontbox, but not jempbox.

The output of Maven's dependency graph generation shows that  
org.apache.pdfbox:pdfbox:jar:1.0.0 has a compile-time dependency on  
org.apache.pdfbox:jempbox:jar:1.0.0

Is this a bug in the PDFBox pom.xml file? Or did that project just  
forget to deploy jempbox to the Apache snapshots repo?

Thanks,

-- Ken

The MD5 checksum that got deployed with the jempbox 1.0.0 POM is not
in the format Maven expects (and updating the MD5 files of an already
deployed artifact is quite tricky), so it tries to find an update from
the net. It's a bit annoying and will be fixed in the 1.0.1 release,
but it doesn't cause too much trouble as Maven still does find the
jempbox 1.0.0 jar (it's on Maven central). For now it's OK to ignore
the warnings Maven outputs about jempbox.
