Hi David,
No particular reason, other perhaps than that I'm fairly [very]
conservative and had no issues with Tomcat 8.
However I've just spun up a new VM and installed Guacamole+Tomcat 9, and
am writing this via that installation now. It should have some more
testing I suppose but at this stage it appears to be working fine.
I did nothing more than replace '8' with '9' in the list, but for
completeness and to save anyone else the need!:

Nice job there ivanmarcus,
can i just ask is there a reason you are still favouring tomcat 8
over 9? (9 is quite mature now?)

Thanks for the new version of Guacamole :-)
I thought it might be useful to update the previous step-by-step
install detail I'd done for Guacamole 1.0.0 on Ubuntu 18.04.2 server.
The following worked for me in a new VM, but note that I installed
libpng-dev rather than libpng12-dev, seemingly with no detriment.
Also I didn't need to create a reduced-privilege user with writable
home directory as I understand has been required for some. That said
my testing has been brief and limited to one RDP session only, so
YMMV...
