You plugin will probably declare a dependency on macker itself.

Make sure the macker libraries are found under the ibiblio repository,
if it's not already done.

see http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MAVENUPLOAD

Note: Macker is under the GPL so depending on how you wrap it, you
might need to make your plugin under the GPL as well. IANAL...
