Strange-looking tomcat6 directory structure
Binary package hint: tomcat6
For whatever reason, the tomcat6 install in Lucid (and I think previous distros) is divided among /usr/share/tomcat6 and etc/tomcat6. However, the necessary symlink is not present to allow Tomcat to access conf files where it expects them to be, usr/share/
If there is a compelling reason not to honor the file-structure that the Apache.org distribution of Tomcat uses, then at least the links and folders should be put in place to allow Tomcat to start successfully and function out of the box, without forcing the user to resort to using sudo privileges to fix it by hand.
