When I run it, there’s a problem about OS version detection, which I found a fix

Before I attach a ridiculously long logfile, does anybody have a quick fix or 
know where
I should go to get the fix?

I suggest having a look at the Debian packaging source for the openjdk-8 package
which is also used in Ubuntu (the maintainer is Matthias Klose in both cases) 
[1].

Have a look at the patches in debian/patches as well as the build script in 
debian/
rules. This should give you the right idea on what is necessary to OpenJDK 8 
build
on Ubuntu.

Please also make sure you have the necessary build dependencies installed:

# apt build-dep openjdk-8
