Tomcat doesn't ship with a systemd control file, so this is likely to be either a RedHat- or Amazon-sourced control file. Coty lurks here, and manages those packages for RedHat. I'm not sure what happens downstream. I'm not aware of any Amazon folks who hang out around here, but I think you might have to ask them directly. Not a satisfying answer, I know, but an accurate one. - -chris -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Comment: Using GnuPG with Thunderbird - https://www.enigmail.net/ iQIzBAEBCAAdFiEEMmKgYcQvxMe7tcJcHPApP6U8pFgFAl5mvAsACgkQHPApP6U8 pFhjdQ/9EklsKbnex9N1xT3MgyoPtI/MotGdCATHTxunSaNvAon36fvXcK1tZL55 sCJlKoX16ZN4cqCxfdAbf/0OUdprfimCwN+4OsDFjNSblo75wJgspvVsyGCc2P3T lGYv8+FmogZa4zlZgRFaSjolDehRxIITo2GGnnJZWyVbz4kGOCd+jBJ2gS2PppcC mvGUhWNopsXn0aK9ni7fFp9CtTdKMsdL3Hlry8cAg8Vcs1/pF4ky0vqiOBAOikXU ofZuvNVE3ClvsdNWfL9saE6KGRWV8Z6RSchQvYqaf4nvyowNfMG7bMig0YpE4ivR 8ja0yoh0OP3KsA0gD5FB+3s4MnZK/IozVADji2dPQzO8Uhyh7TeU7ZeKwmp2bdco wYI7lsutR/5FbxlBygtIaERPNRVBUn4taxpbrPuT/zlVdH0wb5C+nLQS1b4Lai3d 3dF6rlWMt6f2SQLcjti1Kp9HbCKSCCoG8eKPMvfIuCpCihHVMNolpKrV4yS+2qgM 9U9btK3PVlwmkhNzeuwRshMb2OiwmhV8K1JjduKMRYOTRlBdZ5D+VGOdCYVtxovF 5ioAp7Ufr12WwXsThgMqT2Qd1qlPBHBFKEpt+JhURQyJFa0jg24XwEVcEyx9fCaP w0ENwygbMyKu2PXw8iATjXYH1Ep+VfJwIv6TF47CEVY2uL8pG4I= =StYv -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@tomcat.apache.org
