[Bug 1706442] Re: please add support for openjdk-8
>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 users.
It's true that openjdk-8 comes from a PPA, but since it appears trivial
to add support (see links) I don't see why not.
