Title:
16.04 incorrectly installs openjdk-9 to satisfy java8-runtime
dependency
Status in openjdk-9 package in Ubuntu:
Invalid
Bug description:
Hi,
A user recently reported an issue on our bug tracker stating that our package
was pulling in openjdk-9 and subsequently crashed when started. This apparently
because openjdk-9 is the default choice for java8-runtime, which is quite
surprising.
Now it is technically correct that java9 does provide a java8-runtime,
but java9 isn't even released yet and should definitely not be the
default java8-runtime until that time.
Same bug was reported against puppet here:
