Public bug reported:

As requested by doko, I'm filing this tracking bug.

Both openjdk-8-jre and openjdk-9-jre depend on libgtk2.0-0 which is
blocking the demotion of gtk2 to universe.

GTK3 has been in long-term stable support status since the 3.22 release
in September 2016. GTK2 has not gotten an upstream bugfix release since
then, which shows that there is hardly anyone working on maintaining
GTK2 any more.

** Affects: openjdk-8 (Ubuntu)
     Importance: Undecided
         Status: Confirmed


** Tags: gtk2-demotion
