Title:
  Please migrate libjetty-extra-java to tomcat7

Status in One Hundred Papercuts:
  Fix Released
Status in jetty package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in jetty source package in Trusty:
  Fix Committed
Status in jetty package in Debian:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  libjetty-extra-java still depends on libtomcat6-java which prevents it
  from being installed alongside other programs which depend on tomcat7.
  According to the Debian bug report, Eclipse is among these programs.

  (Another it causes problems for is gradle which cannot currently be
  installed at the same time as tomcat7. Gradle's explicit dependency on
  tomcat6 has been removed (see bug 997743for details) and should have
  fixed it, but since gradle also depends on libjetty-extra-java the
  issue is still present. )

  SRU for 14.04, debdiff in comment #11:

  [Impact]
  It is very hard to use this package in conjuction with relevant development tools because they depend on different versions on tomcat which means you can't install both.

  [Test case]
  For instance `sudo apt-get install eclipse libjetty-extra` will fail because eclipse wants tomcat7, but libjetty-extra-java currently needs tomcat6.

  [Regression potential]
  See analysis in comment #15 - there should not be regression potential.
