Public bug reported:

This is for updated Ubuntu 18.04,

I have installed scilab package,

Problem: hardcoded java-8-oracle somewhere, installation goes ok, when I run 
scilab
```
$ scilab
Cannot find /usr/lib/jvm/java-8-oracle/bin/java
```

I have only openjdk-11-jre (which is Bionic default) installed.

Workaround: 
add symlink to default-java
```
cd /usr/lib/jvm
/usr/lib/jvm# ln -s default-java java-8-oracle
```

Correct fix: 
in scripts use default-java instead of java-8-oracle. 

Sorry, I was not able to find which line is failing with the hardcoded
path.

Thank you,
