Public bug reported:

I have, in Feisty, installed sun-java6, eclipse, and tomcat 5.5, all
from the official Ubuntu repository.

The problem comes when I want to create a new "Dynamic Web Project".

First you have to set up a "target runtime". I want to choose tomcat 5.5
of course.

If I try to add a tomcat 5.5 runtime, eclipse tells me that the selected 
directory (/usr/share/tomcat5.5) is not a valid
tomcat installation. Exact errormessage:

"The Tomcat installation directory is not correct. It does not point to
a valid Tomcat installation."

Other people have the same bug with other distros as well:

When I download and extract tomcat manually into a directory on my disk, and 
point eclipse to it, it accepts it.
So I guess there is a packaging problem with the tomcat5.5 packages in Feisty.
