Bug#876115: ITP: tomcat8.0
Package: wnpp
Severity: wishlist
Package name : tomcat8.0
Version : 8.0.46
Upstream Author : The Apache Software Foundation
URL : http://tomcat.apache.org/
License : Apache-2.0
Programming Lang: java
Description : Apache Tomcat 8.0 - Servlet and JSP engine
This is a fork of tomcat8_8.0.39-1 updated to latest upstream version.
It is needed by tomcatjss and dogtag-pki, which got broken after tomcat8
was updated to 8.5 late last year. Upstream has not ported tomcatjss &
dogtag-pki to 8.5 yet, and looks like it'll take some time before it's
done. This package allows working on FreeIPA until that happens. The
package will only build tomcat8.0-user and libtomcat8.0-java, and will
be kept out of testing and removed once tomcatjss and dogtag-pki are ported.
While I could keep the status quo and not have working freeipa in sid,
tomcat8 got synced to Ubuntu so I need this package there anyway, so why
not put it in Debian too..
