Hi, Emmanuel

I'm writing to you directly, since you've been probably the most active
uploader of tomcat-native recently.

I've prepared a tomcat-native 1.3.8 update for trixie, including a dep-8
test to try to identify the incompatibility with tomcat:
https://debusine.debian.net/debian/developers/work-request/1034536/

As a matter of comparison, this is the current version in trixie with
dep-8 test applied:
https://debusine.debian.net/debian/developers/work-request/1035211/

I've tested locally and I can confirm that both tomcat10 and tomcat11 on
trixie don't comply anymore with the proposed tomcat-native update.

I will create a couple of MR to fix related issues on unstable (e.g. #1137794).

Emmanuel, if you agree with the proposed approach. I would love to help
maintaining tomcat-native.  Would you agree adding me to the team so I
can do this as a team upload?

Thanks,

 -- Santiago
