Before you do this: Will tomcat6 then build libservlet2.5-java too? What happens to libservlet2.4-java when we have tomcat6 and remove tomcat5.5 from the archive? We will probably need libservlet2.4-java much longer then tomcat5.5. And another idea would be to build libapache2-mod-jk from tomcat{6.6|6}. What do you think?
