It looks like the ${basedir} variable was substituted by the uber-pom
plugin (from libuber-pom-java). This issue may occur again if this
plugin is used to build other packages, in which case it would be better
to fix the issue directly at the plugin level.

Bug#976716: jbbp: please make the build reproducible

Source: jbbp
Version: 2.0.2-2
Severity: wishlist

Hi,

Whilst working on the Reproducible Builds effort [0] we noticed that
jbbp could not be built reproducibly.

This is because the pom.xml embeds the absolute build path.

Patch attached that removes this part of the file; it cannot relate
to anything at runtime (and I can't see how/where the runtime code
uses this path) so it feels safe to remove.
