OS: xubuntu 14.04 LTS / 64 bit version

Status changed to 'Confirmed' because the bug affects multiple users.

I did get it to install after manually installling libtomcat6-java, but

To reproduce: ubuntu 14.04 LTS

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade
sudo apt-get install red5-server

"red5-server: Depends: libtomcat6-java (>= 6.0.20-7) but it is not going to be installed"

then:

sudo apt-get install libtomcat6-java

This successfully brings in all dependencies for libtomcat6-java and installs.
Trying again after manually meeting the libtomcat6-java dependency:

----------------------------

sudo apt-get install red5-server
