Package: tomcat7
Version: 7.0.75-1
Similiar to Debian bug #597814, the sed statement in the postinst
assumes there is no '%' in a user's JAVA_OPTS. However, this is a valid
possiblity, for example:
-XX:ErrorFile=/var/log/tomcat7/java_error%p.log
This will cause the sed command to fail as it finds a % too early. The
delimiter was previous a '/' however, that can obviously be found in a
path. I would propose that this be changed to use the '|' symbol as it
should be even less common then the % symbol.
Another alternative to remove this situation entirely would be to escape
the strings matching the delimeter.
