Apparently the javadoc dependency is not included as a plugin in the Hudson ecosystem.
[JENKINS-12991] unable to install m2release plugin 0.9.0 or 0.9.1 on Hudson 2.2.0
Jason Chen
added a comment - We are also encountering the same issue using Hudson 2.2.0.
Manual installation didn't work, either.

added a comment - As a workaround for this issue; we can manually remove the dependency for javadoc 1.0 from the plugin.
- Manually download the plugin
http://hudson-ci.org/downloads/plugins/m2release/0.9.1/m2release.hpi
- Unzip this to a temporary folder
- Removed dependency information for javadoc 1.0 found in Manifest file
(file META-INF/MANIFEST.MF); entry with "Plugin-Dependencies"
Change:
Plugin-Dependencies: maven-plugin:2.2.1;resolution:=optional,javadoc:1
.0,maven-plugin:1.442;resolution:=optional
To:
Plugin-Dependencies: maven-plugin:2.2.1;resolution:=optional,maven-plu
gin:1.442;resolution:=optional
- Create a new jar archive
- cd <unzip folder for m2release.hpi>
- jar cvfM m2release.hpi .
- Manually install this new plugin copiin the file m2release.hpi to
$HUDSON_HOME/plugins
- Restart hudson

https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=375565 This is a problem in Hudson.
As said in the Hudson bugtracker, it was fixed in Hudson:
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=375565
So resolving as fixed.
you may be able to work around this by installing the plugin manually.
