You would think so, but a co-worker of mine ran into the same issue without putting anything in his POM. He had installed it using apt-get on ubuntu, but when he replaced that with 3.0.4 from the maven website, it worked fine. I never delved into the issue, but I wonder if apt-get is somehow finding a different 3.0.4?
