Description Coty Sutherland 2016-07-01 16:37:31 UTC
Description of problem:
I've found that the javadoc package for tomcat only contains a single html file, which is pretty useless. The contents are as follows:

# rpm -ql tomcat-javadoc
/usr/share/javadoc/tomcat
/usr/share/javadoc/tomcat/index.html

# cat /usr/share/javadoc/tomcat/index.html
....
Tomcat's internal javadoc is not installed by default. Download and install
the "fulldocs" package to get it. 

You can also access the javadoc online in the Tomcat
<a href="http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-7.0.65-doc/">
documentation bundle</a>.
....

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
tomcat-javadoc-7.0.65-1.el6

How reproducible:
Everytime

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install tomcat-javadoc
2. rpm -ql tomcat-javadoc
3. `cat /usr/share/javadoc/tomcat/index.html` to verify

Actual results:
Tomcat javadocs are not installed.

Expected results:
Tomcat javadocs are installed.
