Java – Maven build failed with an error: the artifact could not be found in the specified path – the path is slightly incorrect

Run this command:

mvn package -Pcdh4

This is an error in Maven:

[ERROR] Failed to execute goal on project hdfs-nfs-proxy: 
Could not resolve dependencies for project 
com.cloudera:hdfs-nfs-proxy:jar:0.8.1: 
Could not find artifact jdk.tools:jdk.tools:jar:1.6 at specified path 
/usr/lib/jvm/java-7-openjdk-amd64/jre/../lib/tools.jar -> [Help 1]

This is the last line in the path // It returns a directory. The path should be:

/usr/lib/jvm/java-7-openjdk-amd64/jre/lib/tools.jar

I don't know Maven or where it's going this way. I just want to follow some build instructions

Using debug:
