Description Curtis Stanford 2003-10-31 10:37:46 UTC
The tomcat ebuilds are being deglected. I submitted a 4.1.27 ebuild that was 
never added to portage. So, here is another one. 4.1.29 was just released and 
I'm attaching the ebuild and supporting files. 

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.emerge sync 
2.Look for tomcat-4.1.29 ebuild 
3.Latest one there is 4.1.24 
Actual Results:  
Couldn't emerge tomcat-4.1.29 

Expected Results:  
Should have emerged tomcat-4.1.29

Tar file containing tomcat-4.1.29 ebuild and supporting files

untar this file in /usr/local/portage/net-www/tomcat and you should be able
to
emerge it (assuming you have PORTAGE_OVERLAY set correctly).

Turning out to be a rather sad state of affairs. On Wed, Dec 3rd, Tomcat 5.0.16 stable was released.

Moving this again to java@gentoo.org, so everyone out there can help.

Tomcat 5.0.18 released:

http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/tomcat-5.0-doc/changelog.html

Looks like quite a few bug fixes when going from 5.0.16 to 5.0.18.
Comment 5 rgm 2004-02-10 10:49:16 UTC
Two things:
1.  It's important to support both the 4.1 releases and the 5.0 releases.  Lots of people are not ready to move to 5.0 (it's a different servlet API version).

2.  Let's get this tomcat 4.1.29 ebuild into portage -- it seemed to work well for me, and if it goes into ~arch masking, others will test.  In my opinion, fixing this bug should make bug #26994 obsolete (you could mark that one WONTFIX or similar).

Tomcat 4.1.29 and 5.0.18 are in portage now. Cheers, and thanks. Any new bugs, please post and we'll take care of it. Sorry for the slowness :(
