Thank you Konstantin, I'm still subscribed to the list though. > The following search: > https://packages.debian.org/search?keywords=tomcat > > shows that Tomcat 6 packages are present in > "squeeze (oldoldstable) " > "squeeze-lts" > "wheezy (oldstable)" > > but current stable ("jessie (stable)") has only 7 and 8. Actually Debian 8 "Jessie" still has a tomcat6 source package, but it builds only the Servlet API 2.5. For Debian 9 "Stretch" to be released in 2017 we'll probably remove the tomcat7 package and provide Tomcat 8 & 9. That means Debian wouldn't need support for Tomcat 7 after April 2020. Tomcat 6 in Debian has been on a downtrend since April 2013, Tomcat 7 overtook it in September 2014 and is still gaining in popularity despite the availability of Tomcat 8 [1]. The figures for Ubuntu are very different, Tomcat 6 still has 8 times more installations than Tomcat 7, and Tomcat 8 is inexistent [2].
