Public bug reported:

Please add support for OpenJDK 8.  I conjecture that this can be done by
adding the relevant packages to the postinst script (see links).

1)
$ lsb_release -rd
Description:    Ubuntu 14.04.5 LTS
Release:        14.04

2)
$ apt-cache policy ca-certificates-java
ca-certificates-java:
  Installed: 20130815ubuntu1
  Candidate: 20130815ubuntu1
  Version table:
 *** 20130815ubuntu1 0
        500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ trusty/main amd64 Packages
        100 /var/lib/dpkg/status
