Hi Paul,
You are right I could have done the same thing for
Dear Emmanuel,
The two directories
/etc/tomcat8/Catalina
/etc/tomcat8/Catalina/localhost
have similar ownership and permissions, but they are set up differently:
localhost is "delivered" writable, while Catalina is delivered without
but is then set so in postinst (and re-set at each upgrade).

Dear Emmanuel,
(Yes I had tomcat6, then went to tomcat8, skipping tomcat7; and have
inherited things.)
You seem to say that /etc/tomcat8/Catalina/localhost does not need to
be writable by tomcat8, setting it so was useless (thus wrong).
What about the /etc/tomcat8/Catalina directory, is

Dear Emmanuel,
Sorry for my previous outbursts. I was wrong.
Your fix (chmod-ing just Catalina, not localhost) is fine: if you do not
chmod localhost, then there is no issue even if localhost is replaced by
a symlink pointing somewhere.
However... will tomcat still "work"? On my machine, I have
Hmm... I just accused you of being mistaken... but maybe it is I

Please re-open.
