Bug#603666: Symlink to /etc/tomcat6 should be provided at /usr/share/tomcat6/conf

Package: tomcat6
Version: 6.0.28-7
Severity: normal

Using the Netbeans IDE web development module, the module refuses to allow me
to specify CATALINA_HOME as '/var/lib/tomcat6'. However, it will allow
'/usr/share/tomcat6', but then complain it cannot locate
'<CATALINA_HOME>/conf/server.xml. The simple fix for this is to add a symlink
to /etc/tomcat6 at /usr/share/tomcat6/conf.
