** Description changed: [Impact] ca-certificates-java currently depend on openjdk-7 which no longer exist after Trusty. It triggers failures while doing release upgrade, due to triggers loop. [Test Case] # Install Ubuntu server 14.04.5 + all the updates. (I used "uvt-kvm create trustylp1723198 release=trusty") sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get dist-upgrade # Install ca-certificates-java and man-db. sudo apt-get install ca-certificates-java man-db # Upgrade to 16.04 LTS. sudo do-release-upgrade # Error: .......................... Removing ca-certificates-java (20130815ubuntu1) ... Removing openjdk-7-jre-headless:amd64 (7u151-2.6.11-2ubuntu0.14.04.1) ... dpkg: cycle found while processing triggers: chain of packages whose triggers are or may be responsible: man-db -> ca-certificates packages' pending triggers which are or may be unresolvable: ca-certificates: update-ca-certificates man-db: /usr/share/man dpkg: error processing package ca-certificates (--remove): triggers looping, abandoned [Regression Potential] * Regression is low risk. Xenial and late doesn't have openjdk-7 available in the archive. It has openjdk-8. This will have the effect to make the release upgrade to work correctly when ca-certificates-java is installed. This patch has been already proven to work in Artful, Bionic and Debian upstream. - * See Comment #16 + * See Comment #16 & #17. [Other Info] * Debian bug : https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=863803 * Debian commit: https://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/pkg-java/ca-certificates-java.git/commit/?id=0ddf3c9 [Original Description] Test Case: 1. Install Ubuntu server 14.04.5 + all the updates 2. Install ca-certificates-java and man-db 3. Reboot 4. Upgrade to 16.04 LTS with do-release-upgrade and proceed with the upgrade Actual Result Upgrade fails with Removing ca-certificates-java (20130815ubuntu1) ...
