Hi,
the recent updates to openjdk-8, java-common (and related packages) in
stretch made some upgrade issues surface (either they were hidden behind
now fixed issues or they appeared due to changed scores computed by
apt).
openjdk-7/jessie and openjdk-8/stretch are not co-installable (via some
transitive Breaks involving tzdata-java), but on some upgrade paths apt
does not compute this correctly and prefers to keep openjdk-7 installed
instead of switching to openjdk-8.
Adding an explicit Breaks: openjdk-7-jre-headless to
default-jre-headless seems to push apts scores into the right direction
for all the cases I tested.
