Bug Description
When running the command:
$ tomcat6-
errors appear, and directories named ~ and A are created in my home folder, but not "A B".
Similarly, when running:
$ tomcat6-
two directories A and B are created in my home folder, but not "A B".
Again, errors appear, such as "mkdir: Could not create ~/A: file exists already" and "ln: goal B/lib is not a directory".
Expected behaviour:
a Tomcat installation should appear in "~/A B",
no errors should be shown in the terminal window.
Version information:
Ubuntu: 12.04 Beta 2
tomcat6: 6.0.35-1ubuntu2
tomcat6-user: 6.0.35-1ubuntu2
