[Bug 1723198] Re: [SRU] upgrade from 14.04 to 16.04 fails with: ca-certificates 20170717~16.04.1 failed to install/upgrade: triggers looping, abandoned
# Discussion with foundation team.
<slangasek> slashd: interesting that this is a behavior difference; we
actually *would* want it to pull in openjdk-8-jre-headless by default
instead of -9- in xenial, since 9 is in universe and 8 is in main. It
is a behavior change that we should call out as part of the SRU (i.e.
"regression potential"), but I don't consider it a blocker for the SRU.
<slangasek> The debdiff for xenial looks fine, the question is the test
case. Did you verify already that having this package available in apt
sources fixes the upgrade failure?
<slangasek> then +1 from me
** 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:

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 & #17.
+ * The actual "ca-certificates-java" install openjdk-9 (universe), with
+ this fix the new package will install openjdk-8 (main) which is
+ preferable. Meaning there will be a change behaviour. For more detail:
+ See Comment #16, #17 & #18. Foundation is fine with the behaviour
+ change.

[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

I have no further information to give at this time except to say that
there were several errors during the upgrade process from 14.04.
