I highly recommend using Olaf's suggestion of separating the
"concept" of the Tomcat installation directory (/opt/tomcat or
/opt/tomcat/latest if you prefer) with the actually location of the
un-tarred Tomcat distribution (e.g. /opt/tomcat/apache-tomcat-x.y.x).

I would also highly recommend that you take a look at the RUNNING.txt
file that comes with Tomcat with particular attention to the "Advanced
Configuration - Multiple Tomcat Instances" section. Even if you don't
intent to run multiple Tomcat instances simultaneously, you might want
to consider using a "split" Tomcat for ease of upgrading Tomcat in the
future.
