Packaging Maven in Fedora can be quite frustrating experience, especially in the beginning. I'll try to collect common error messages and fixes that will show you how to workaround these problems
Basic issues with dependencies
Compilation failures
Test failures

javadoc:javadoc issue
You can encounter this bug when trying to create javadocs for multi-module maven projects:
[ERROR] BUILD ERROR [INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [INFO] Internal error in the plugin manager executing goal 'org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-javadoc-plugin:2.7:javadoc': Unable to load the mojo 'org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-javadoc-plugin:2.7:javadoc' in the plugin 'org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-javadoc-plugin'.

Solution is pretty simple: use javadoc:aggregate instead. Another advantage of this approach is that you will not have to merge javadocs for all modules manually. Merged javadoc will be created in target/site/apidocs in top-level project
