The point I was trying to come up with was that it should be possible to
install tomcat5.5 *regardless* of the JDK installed on the system,
as long as the installed JDK package Provides: java2-compiler. I'm not sure
whether this can be achieved by making ecj-bootstrap provide java2-compiler.

Anybody here who can enlighten us on this issue? TIA.

Greetings,
