Title:
  package openjdk-7-jre-headless (not installed) failed to
  install/upgrade: trying to overwrite shared
  '/etc/java-7-openjdk/management/jmxremote.password', which is
  different from other instances of package openjdk-7-jre-headless:amd64

Status in “openjdk-7” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  had a problem trying to run arduino installed with apt-get and and
  tried to remove my openjdk, but while removing, got this failure.

  Additional info:
  I know that at some point I followed some strange steps to get webex video conferencing to work on Ubuntu and it required me to install a jdk in a very particular way. I no longer need webex because our remote work software has been chosen to be Google Hangouts, so I am now trying to get back to a standard installation of the JDK.
