Bug#384062: tomcat5.5: Can't find java compiler

[Sven Arnold]

This is because Tomcat does not find the jasper compiler from the Java 
Development Toolkit:

$ cd /usr/share/tomcat5.5/common/lib/
$ ls -l jasper-compiler*
jasper-compiler.jar
jasper-compiler-jdt.jar -> ../../../java/ecj.jar

As a workaround, installing ecj-bootstrap should help (it does for me).

I don't know if the real fix is to add a dependency to ecj or include 
jasper-compiler-jdt.jar from tomcat into the package.

Best Regards,

Sven
