Hello Debian Java Maintainers,

There is a circular dependency between libmaven-plugin-tools-java and
libsurefire-java:

libmaven-plugin-tools-java 	:Depends: libsurefire-java
libsurefire-java 	        :Depends: libmaven-plugin-tools-java

Complex circular dependencies are known to cause problems during
upgrade, so we should try to avoid them.
