Java is very widely used by corporates and businesses all over the
world.

Taking into consideration that oracle java 8 is already out-of-life, the
lack of proper java support in ubuntu LTS is rather shocking and will
turn off many potential adopters who will think ubuntu is just a "toy"
and instead turn (or more likely continue using) Red Hat.

  Confirmed

Bug description:

  According to the comments in that bug, a separate bug needs to be
  reported for backporting.

  I am especially interested in a package for 14.04, hence raising this
  specific bug.
