Bug#685837: unblock: tomcat-native/1.1.24-1
Package: release.debian.org
Severity: normal
User: release.debian.org@packages.debian.org
Usertags: freeze-exception
Dear Release Team:
Please consider an unblock for package tomcat-native due to #685516.
The current version in wheezy (1.1.23) is incompatible with the version
of tomcat7-7.0.28 in wheezy.
tomcat-native version 1.1.24 is compatible with and has been tested with
both tomcat6-6.0.35 and tomcat7-7.0.28. We recognize that the requesting
a new upstream version is typically not permitted during the freeze, but
in this case the differences between upstream versions aren't extensive
and the package is intended for use in conjunction with tomcat6 and
tomcat7 (I am not aware of other uses), so it seems a shame to release
with a version incompatible with tomcat7.
Thank you for your consideration,
tony (on behalf of the Java Team)
