[Bug 575303] [NEW] tomcat6 has two webapps/ directories

[Joshua Daniel Franklin]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: tomcat6

tomcat6 creates both /usr/share/tomcat6/webapps/ and
/var/lib/tomcat6/webapps/ for some reason. Since the
CATALINA_BASE=/var/lib/tomcat6 the first /usr/share is not used at all
and it confused me!  Please remove  /usr/share/tomcat6/webapps/  from
the tomcat6 package.


default ubuntu page:
"Tomcat6 veterans might be pleased to learn that this system instance of Tomcat is installed with CATALINA_HOME in /usr/share/tomcat6  and CATALINA_BASE in /var/lib/tomcat6, following the rules from /usr/share/doc/tomcat6-common/RUNNING.txt.gz."

from RUNNING.txt.gz:
"When you use $CATALINA_BASE, Tomcat will calculate all relative references for
files in the following directories based on the value of $CATALINA_BASE instead
of $CATALINA_HOME:"
