Oh, your're right! That's indeed interesting. No, this is actually my 
own local tomcat. Nevertheless, I've never supplied that path to the 
Yanel configure process, but told it to install its own.

Hmm, indeed, my $CATALINA_HOME of course points to my own tomcat.

So, just a short recap:

  1) User has already installed a tomcat, and has $CATALINA_HOME 
pointing to it
  2) Nevertheless, the user tell configure to install the tomcat 
delivered with Yanel


I am not sure how we could handle such a situation. Should configure 
check for an existing env variable to see if the user has already 
installed a tomcat? Or, should it use its own tomcat if the user told it 
to install its own one, despite already having another tomcat on the 
machine.
