Changelog
tomcat6 (6.0.24-1) unstable; urgency=low
[ Ludovic Claude ]
* New upstream version
* Update the POM files for the new version of Tomcat
* Bump up Standards-Version to 3.8.4
* Refresh patches deploy-webapps-build-xml.patch and var_loaders.patch
* Remove patch fix_context_name.patch as it has been applied upstream

and links to the jar are added to /usr/share/maven-repo
* Moved NEWS.Debian into README.Debian
* Add a link from /usr/share/doc/tomcat6-common/README.Debian to
/usr/share/doc/tomcat6/README.Debian to include a minimum of
documentation in the tomcat6 package and add some useful notes.
(Closes: #563937, #563939)
* Remove poms from the Debian packaging, use upstream pom files
[ Jason Brittain ]
* Fixed a bug in the init script: When a start fails, the PID file was
being left in place. Now the init script makes sure it is deleted.
* Fixed a packaging bug that results in the ROOT webapp not being properly
installed after an uninstall, then a reinstall.
* control: Corrected a couple of comments (no functional change).
tomcat6 (6.0.20-dfsg1-2) unstable; urgency=low
* JSVC is no longer used by the package. Instead, the init script invokes
the stock catalina.sh script.
* Authbind is now the standard method for binding Tomcat to ports lower
than 1024 (when using IPv4).
* The security manager now defaults to the disabled state, and is commented
that way in /etc/default/tomcat6.
* Reliable restarts are now implemented in the init script.
(Closes: #561559)
* Tomcat now sends STDOUT and STDERR to its usual, stock log file
CATALINA_BASE/logs/catalina.out (/var/log/tomcat6/catalina.out in this
package's case.
