Bug#614333: how to ship catalina-jmx-remote.jar?
Thanks for the input - there is now a tomcat6-extras package (for the time-being it only contains the catalina-jmx-remote.jar). The packaging changes have been checked into the SVN repo if anyone would like to go ahead and build a package. I'm going to try to accumulate another bug fix or 2 or before the next upload to Debian unstable.
