Bug#554853: jetty: Jetty is unable to run on port 80

[Ludovic Claude]

Hello,

You should install the package libjetty-extra, it contains libsetuid.so
which will help you to give Jetty the priviledge to use a port under
1024. You will need to configure jetty-setuid.xml, in particular set the
startServerAsPrivileged property to true.
