Hi,

This is not critical, I just want to have something clear. The last
change done to the package outputs the PID like this:

jtocancipa at golem:~$ sudo /etc/init.d/tomcat5.5 status
Tomcat servlet engine is running with Java pid /var/lib/tomcat5.5/temp/tomcat5.5.pid

Is there is a reason (security policy, etc.) why we don't display the
PID instead the location of the file containing the PID?

The patch I proposed (see bug report history) displays the PID
itself. IMHO tomcat5.5 status should display the PID, not the location
of the file containing it.

Regards,
