2009-02-16 09:29:03 Thierry Carrez tomcat6: statusexplanation I agree that having a /var/lib/tomcat6/lib directory that is just ignored is very confusing. However I would not change Tomcat behavior from upstream design and make it consider two directories when looking for libraries. Not only would that involve some heavy patch into bootstrap.jar, it would also introduce a change in how Tomcat usually works. I'd rather fix the confusion by removing /var/lib/tomcat6/lib and also the lib subdirectory in instances created by tomcat6-instance-create.
