Debian Changelog tomcat5.5 (5.5.20-2)

2006

tomcat5.5 (5.5.20-2) unstable; urgency=medium

   * Now runs with java-gcj-compat. (Closes: #395167)
   * Add compatibility links for JDK 1.4. Thanks to Javier Serrano
     Polo. (Closes: #397996).
   * Fix accidental double removal of the tomcat55 user on purge in some
     cases. Thanks to Andreas Beckmann. (Closes: #393224)
   * Fix typo affecting "/etc/init.d/tomcat5.5 status" command. Thanks to
     Jhair Tocancipa Triana. (Closes: #398044)
   * Webapps are now installed in /usr/share/tomcat5.5-webapps. Their
     context definitions are copied into
     /var/lib/tomcat5.5/conf/Catalina/localhost on first install, but if
     removed they will no longer be re-enabled on every upgrade. Thanks to
     Adrian Bridgett. (Closes: #399184)
   * Change owner of various files from tomcat5 to tomcat55 on upgrade from
     release 5.5.17-1 or earlier. Thanks to Mike Whitaker. (Closes: #392569)
   * Don't use juli LogManager with java-gcj-compat, as workaround for bug
     #399251.
   * We no longer need xsltproc to generate documentation, since the
     required supporting functions are now available in main.
   * debian/ant.properties, debian/rules: Don't delete PureTLS code from
     the source. It will be ignored during build anyway.
   * Rebuild jkstatus-ant from source instead of using precompiled class
     files.
   * Simplified the .install files by grouping by directory.
   * Install forgotten files `catalina.properties', `logging.properties'
     and `context.xml' in /var/lib/tomcat5.5/conf.
   * Synchronized security policy files with upstream.
   * debian/rules: Don't use CDBS. Thus we no longer need a bogus "ant xxx"
     invocation in the "clean" target, and the script is simple enough
     anyway.

tomcat5.5 (5.5.20-1) unstable; urgency=low

   * debian/control: Add some missing dependencies.

     one is taken from upstream (published at download location)
   * Tomcat5 has a new context file handling. The xml files with the context of
     a webapp needs to be put into conf/[Engine name]/[Host name] whereas the
     default engine which serves the admin webapp has to be called "Catalina":

     info is superceded by the existance of java-package
   * Updated *.policy files to match new jars and fixed typos

     packaging tomcat5 (closes: #222876, #267741)
