Title:
  Installation failure for openjdk-9 on 16.04 ("trying to overwrite
  jawt_md.h")

Status in openjdk-9 package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  When installing "openjdk-9-jdk" on Ubuntu 16.04, the installation
  fails:

  It appears to be a packaging issue; both openjdk-9-jdk and openjdk-9
  -jdk-headless provide the same file /usr/lib/jvm/java-9-openjdk-
  amd64/include/linux/jawt_md.h

  As a result, it is not possible to install "openjdk-9-jdk" on Ubuntu
  16.04.
