Missing artifact com.google.android:android:jar:4.4_r1

I'm trying to use Android 4.4_r1 and Maven for a project but for some reason the version maxima maven let me use is 4.1.1.4

I know it is not possible redristribucion android.jar and therefore the necessary maven-android-sdk-deployer, I've cloned the project and have run the command 

mvn clean install -Pall,with-javadoc

and install all libraries, later when i edit the pom.xml file i get the following error

Missing artifact com.google.android:android:jar:4.4_r1

I've checked into the path ~/.m2/repository/com/google/android/android and i can see the following versions

1.5_r4  2.2.1  2.3.1  4.1.1.4  4.2.2_r2  4.3_r2  4.4  4.4_r1

What am I doing wrong?

From https://github.com/mosabua/maven-android-sdk-deployer -

The android.jar artifacts in Maven central are available with the groupId com.google.android, whereas this tool uses android.android to avoid overlap.

This means that when using the Maven Android SDK deployer your pom.xml should reference the artifact like this -

<dependency>
  <groupId>android</groupId>
  <artifactId>android</artifactId>
  <version>4.4.2_r2</version>
  <scope>provided</scope>
</dependency>

Note: the 4.4_r1 is no longer shipped in the Android SDK as it has been replaced by 4.4.2_r2.

The 4.1.1.4 version was the last com.google.android:android version uploaded to Maven Central, that's why it's the latest one you can reference using com.google.android:android.
