No, newer Tomcat will not help you. You either need to shut down the
process that runs on port 8180 in order to make it available to Tomcat
before starting it or configure Tomcat (or the Tomcat context DSpace
runs in) run on another port.

However, when you're using Tomcat from repository,
instead of
$ sudo sh /usr/share/tomcat5.5/bin/catalina.sh run
you need to run
$ sudo /etc/init.d/tomcat5.5 start
Then you will also often use the same command with "stop" and
"restart" instead of "start".

So, first thing, run
$ sudo netstat -tulpn to find out the name and PID of the process
which runs on port 8180

1) if it's Tomcat, restart it and
    a) if you configured the context correctly, DSpace should be running there
    b) if you chose to copy DSpace to /var/lib/tomcat5.5/webapps,
DSpace should also be running
2) if it's other process than DSpace
    a) shut it down and make it use another port
    b) configure DSpace context to run on another port

I'm running the same configuration as you, there's no need not to use
packages from the repository.
