Description Ivan Gyurdiev 2005-09-25 05:00:47 UTC
From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.8b3) Gecko/20050827 Fedora/1.1-0.2.8.deerpark.alpha2 Firefox/1.0+

Description of problem:
The tomcat5 packages try to install files with group tomcat. This group does not exist on my machine. Investigating the problem, I find that GID 91 is currently used by a group called tomcat4, possibly left over from previous packages. 

Perhaps the packaging should do something about that? (erase it?)

By the way, the 2>/dev/null in the script completely hides this important detail from the user.
