Following the instructions in the README, I installed Maven 3.3.9 using Homebrew.

I then ran the command

mvn clean package

This resulted in the following error:

I believe the problem is this commit, which incorrectly added a package prefix of "main.java" to all of the classes.

@rogerawad, those directories are not supposed to be part of the Java package structure— Maven just expects all the (non-test) source files to be contained within src/main/java. In other words, if you have a package called dog.cat, the corresponding source directory would be src/main/java/dog/cat (and unit tests for that package would be in src/test/java/dog/cat). I'm guessing that maybe you tried loading the project into Eclipse and Eclipse did not set the source folders correctly— it looks like other people have encountered the same confusion, see this Stack Overflow page.

This is now fixed!
