Public bug reported:
I just upgraded from Ubuntu 17.10 to 18.04 and I ended up with a failing
instance of Tomcat.
I get the following error in the log
08-May-2018 20:52:38.487 SEVERE [http-nio-8080-exec-1]

This seems to indicate that tomcat8 package has been built using Java 9+
(which contains a breaking change in the return type of
ByteBuffer#position method).
I really need to run it with Java 8 in my case (and Tomcat 8 is supposed
support Java 8 anyway) but Ubuntu should build it with Java 8 for that
(and then it should work just fine in Java 9 too).
Java 8 is still the current LTS version of Java so don't bury it too
quickly :)
I don't really have any workaround idea to propose other that not using
the standard tomcat8 Ubuntu package and install it "by hand" instead.
But then my other issue is that I can't use another debian package which
depends on tomcat8 package :)
