>From what I can tell, the rationale for adding the "Breaks" directive in
openjdk-8 was that with the current version of ca-certificates-java,
users who do not use one of the enumerated JVMs will not have their cert
store updated when this package gets updated, which is a security
problem for those
Independent of the "Java is completely broken" issue, I do think the
originally stated case of "ca-certificate-java should support openjdk-8"
is still totally valid. Installing this package seems to bring in java
7 even when you already have 8 installed.
The current situation is pretty ridiculous
Sorry, simply saying it's invalid isn't very helpful, especially for a
critical bug. How should the bug have been raised? What can we do to
raise it in the right place?
I've already tried raising a bug against the openjdk-r PPA, but just get
a message that openjdk-r isn't configured to receive bug
this has nothing to do with the LTS. It's a PPA.

Title:
pleas
We're also finding that we cannot install Java 8 on Trusty anymore. One
other thing I noted is that the openjdk-8 package seems to have a
'Breaks: ' directive for older versions of ca-certificates-java,
including this version.
This is a really serious issue for us, and this is not the first time
I echo the above statement. Virtually all of my company's applications
now use Java 8 on 14.04, so this working is quite important.
Looks like the packages are rebuilding right now, so hopefully that
resolves this issue.

This is quite critical for us, and anyone else who has software with
dependencies on Java 8, since that software no longer installs on 14.04
and there is no workaround. The change that caused the problem is
actually in the openjdk package (which worked up until yesterday when
the change was made):
Status changed to 'Confirmed' because the bug affects multiple users.
