Problem building swagger-codegen-2.1.5

[Gintare Ragaisiene]

Hello,

I want to use swagger-codegen on Ubuntu 14.04 LTS (OS type 64-bit). So I downloaded the source code from https://github.com/swagger-api/swagger-codegen/tree/v2.1.5 , unzipped it and run

$ sudo mvn -e package

The error appears:
...

This is was due to old Maven2. I purged Maven2 and installed latest Maven3, the error has gone.
