Rpm doesn't install with correct ownership/permissions

           Summary: Rpm doesn't install with correct ownership/permissions
           Product: Tomcat 4
           Version: 4.0.4 Final
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Minor
          Priority: Other
         Component: Installable Packages
        AssignedTo: tomcat-dev@jakarta.apache.org
        ReportedBy: richard@dcs.bbk.ac.uk


Tomcat needs to run as the user tomcat4.
When run as root, the rpm creates an account for
this user.

It then assigns all the files to belong to root,
hence tomcat refuses to save any files to the
webapps directory and no applications can be
deployed.

chown -R tomcat4:tomcat4 fixes this, but the rpm
should install it correctly.
