We could simply replace tomcat9-user with tomcat10-user because it only ships a
script to create a standalone tomcat instance. We have to do
s/tomcat9/tomcat10/ in some debian service files as well.

The question is: If we ship libtomcat9-java in Bookworm and change the
dependency from tomcat9-user to tomcat10-user, will a web application like
dogtag-pki, which is designed for Tomcat 9, continue to work with Tomcat 10? I
don't know yet and maybe Timo can chime in here. 

Regards,

Markus
