#186786 — OpenJDK 8 from jessie backports

Hi,

I did the mistake of running an "apt-get dist-upgrade" on my Debian 8
machine which uses Debian backports in oder to have the OpenJDK 8
package. Now I am stuck by with the OpenJDK 7 from the Debian repo and
if I try to install OpenJDK 8 again I get the following error:

$ sudo apt-get install openjdk-8-jre-headless
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
distribution that some required packages have not yet been created
or been moved out of Incoming.
The following information may help to resolve the situation:

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
 openjdk-8-jre-headless : Breaks: ca-certificates-java (< 20160321~)
but 20140324 is to be installed
E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.

Does anyone have an idea how I can get OpenJDK 8 from backports back?

Best,
John

Hi John,

I had the same problem with Jessie and OpenJdk-8.

You have to install ca-certificates-java from backports too.

HTH

In general, the command

	apt-get -t jessie-backports install openjdk-8-jre-headless

should automatically resolve the dependencies for you.
