I see the same errors from update-java-alternatives, but it looks like the problem is that no JREs have yet registered with this particular script. I'm not sure what all java-common is supposed to do, but there are a large number of packages which depend on it and none of them seem to care about update-java-alternatives; so I don't think we should consider this package unusable just because this particular script is unusable.
