Bug#439860: Missing dependency on libcommons-io-java package

[Giuseppe Sacco]

Package: tomcat5.5-admin
Version: 5.5.20-5
Severity: important

When you deploy a new war, it happens that commons-fileupload uses
commons-io.

In order to fix it, I installed the libcommons-io-java and created a
link
from /usr/share/tomcat5.5/server/webapps/manager/WEB-INF/lib/commons-io.jar to ../../../../../../java/commons-io.jar .

The exception I used to get is:

GRAVE: Servlet.service() for servlet HTMLManager threw exception
java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError:
