Package: tomcat5
Severity: normal
Tags: experimental

After installation of tomcat5 it didn't run because of some su issue. I
figured out that the problem was due to one line in my /etc/pam.d/su
that goes:

auth       requisite   pam_wheel.so group=wheel debug

After commenting this out the su problem appeared no more, but tomcat5
complaint about bad permissions of /usr/sbin/rotatelogs, which was 0750
root:root. I had to change yet another thing in order to get tomcat5
simply initializing.

Now I don't know what to do with this /etc/pam.d/su because I wanted to
restrict access to su and yet, I want to allow tomcat5 existence.

BTW: This su thing was also killing me, while trying jetty from
unstable.
