There might also be stuff in something like /var/lib/tomcat7.  There
is, in Gentoo:

  CATALINA_HOME=/usr/share/tomcat-7/
  CATALINA_BASE=/var/lib/tomcat-7/

But that seems like doing it the hard way.  You don't need to have a
"dspace user" at all.  All you need is your account for building (so
that if you make a mistake, you don't damage Tomcat) and the account
that runs Tomcat.  And fighting your package manager seems like a
great idea if you enjoy frustration.

I actually tried this once.  That's how I learned to never do it
again.  I recommend against it.
