Public bug reported: i installed tomcat7 on a fresh ubuntu 12.04 installation (fully dist- upgraded)
The installation of tomcat7 is telling that no home-directy will be created (sorry its german) Creating config file /etc/default/tomcat7 with new version Lege Systembenutzer »tomcat7« (UID 121) an ...

Dez 14:11:26 CET 2013 So as it seems the message from the installer is wrong, because its saying "home-directly will not be created" but it was creating the home.directoy.
