Steve:
I replicated what was done on Tomcat 5.5 packages but I agree Tomcat should
certainly use something more appropriate for "$CATALINA_BASE/temp". Tomcat in
general doesn't play well with FHS as it expects to find everything in a single
directory. However, as is done for the "$CATALINA_BASE/
Ack for inclusion in intrepid post-RC; please upload.
BTW, shouldn't tomcat be using something other than /var/lib for a temp
directory? This is an FHS violation, and is inconsistent with things
like backup policies that try to avoid temp files. (But please don't
change that for intrepid...)
