I think you're confusing the project's packaging (which controls the build
lifecycle) with the artifact's type (its extension)

The log4j:log4j:1.2.16 project declares its packaging as "bundle", because
it uses the lifecycle defined in the maven-bundle-plugin to produce an
artifact that can deployed onto OSGi frameworks. However the type of this
artifact is "jar" because it is still a JAR file - it just uses a different
lifecycle to check and generate the JAR, and this lifecycle also adds the
appropriate OSGi metadata to the artifact.

The main artifact on Maven central has type (extension) "jar" so that's the
value you should use in your <type> segment (or just omit <type> as jar is
the default).

[ see also
https://repository.sonatype.org/index.html#nexus-search;quick~log4j <-- the
main artifact extension/type is shown as "jar" ]

HTH

It searches for some log4J.<version>.bundle, whereas there is actually a
