Hence the attempts to post to the devel list.
tomcat6 seems to be the only version of Tomcat in Ubuntu main, and it appears to have been quite extensively repackaged since tomcat5.5. The ubuntu-server mailing list would be the best place to discuss this, I think; Thierry Carrez and Mathias Gug have been working on it in Ubuntu. It seems to address at least some of the concerns in the mailing list post above, but I am nothing like an expert on it myself and can only point you in the right direction. tomcat5.5 is in our "universe" component (http://www.ubuntu.com/community/ubuntustory/components). The differences between the Debian and Ubuntu tomcat5.5 packages appear to be rather small, so concerns about it would probably be best directed to the Debian maintainer. The advertised mailing list for that is: Debian Java Maintainers <[email protected]> Regards, -- Colin Watson [[email protected]] -- ubuntu-server mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server More info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ServerTeam
