 We are having a number of failed builds from individual developers and
 build automations (github actions, taavis0 making use of the osgeo
 snapshot repository.

 So far these are hard to reproduce in isolation, so an experimental pull
 request has been setup here:
 https://github.com/geoserver/geoserver/pull/4461

 As an example of a specific failure:

 > DEBUG] Could not find metadata org.geotools:gt-main:24-SNAPSHOT/maven-
 metadata.xml in local (/home/travis/.m2/repository)

 Builds were also failing on gwc, but checking the build logs we can see
 these being uploaded:

 > Uploading to nexus: https://repo.osgeo.org/repository/geoserver-
 snapshots/org/geowebcache/gwc-web/1.18-SNAPSHOT/gwc-
 web-1.18-20200824.192934-1.jar

 Checking the repo logs I have not yet seen these jars being removed:

 > 2020-08-24 19:32:19,744+0000 INFO [quartz-7-thread-20] *SYSTEM
 org.sonatype.nexus.repository.maven.internal.orient.RemoveSnapshotsFacetImpl
