Bug#580639: jetty init script uses sudo but does not depend on it

Package: jetty
Version: 6.1.24-2
Severity: important

On a server without sudo installed, when you try to start jetty with the
initscript, you get:

# /etc/init.d/jetty start
Starting Jetty servlet engine.: jetty Create log file/etc/init.d/jetty:
line 277: sudo: command not found

Actually I don't see a need to use sudo in the first place. So instead
of depending on sudo, I'd recommend that we patch out the use of it.
