Re: trying to overwrite `/sw/var/tomcat8/webapps', which is also in package metaboanalyst-tomcat8-r31

FYI, I have fixed this issue in 10.7 tree by moving
the %p/var/tomcat[6,7,8]webapps symlinks out of the main tomcat[6,7,8]
packages. It is now created into the PostInstScript and deleted in
the PreRmScript script which solves reinstalling  tomcat[6,7,8] while
metaboanalyst- tomcat[6,7,8] -r[30,31] is installed.
