Public bug reported: Tomcat 8.0.x is slated for EOL in June, and Debian's tomcat8 packages have already been on Tomcat 8.5.x for a while (it's in both their stable release (stretch) and in backports for the previous stable release (jessie-backports)). However, on the Ubuntu side, even the upcoming Ubuntu Artful tomcat8 package is still on version 8.0.38.
It seems like Ubuntu should be keeping up here and be including Tomcat 8.5.x in the upcoming release.
