[Bug 1232258] Re: tomcat7 installer fails to create symbolic links

Regarding
sudo ln -s /var/lib/tomcat7/common/ /usr/share/tomcat7/common
etc...

So the currently proposed solution is to create links in the
CATALINA_HOME directory (i.e. the "singleton installation directory")
pointing to some example CATALINA_BASE instance directory (i.e. the
instance directory with the ROOT default hello-world servlet).

This feels like a workaround. When this issue is resolved, having the
symbolic linking go in the opposite direction (i.e. CATALINA_HOME has
all required directories) feels more sensible to me.
