--- Begin Message ---Package: openjdk-7-jdk Version: 7u79-2.5.5-1 Severity: normal The priority for update-alternatives of the java and javac in the openjdk-7 package are not the same. On my system, I have three versions of openjdk installed (6, 7, and 8). $ update-alternatives --display javac javac - auto mode link currently points to /usr/lib/jvm/java-8-openjdk-amd64/bin/javac /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-openjdk-amd64/bin/javac - priority 1061 slave javac.1.gz: /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-openjdk-amd64/man/man1/javac.1.gz /usr/lib/jvm/java-7-openjdk-amd64/bin/javac - priority 1051 slave javac.1.gz: /usr/lib/jvm/java-7-openjdk-amd64/man/man1/javac.1.gz /usr/lib/jvm/java-8-openjdk-amd64/bin/javac - priority 1069 slave javac.1.gz: /usr/lib/jvm/java-8-openjdk-amd64/man/man1/javac.1.gz Current 'best' version is '/usr/lib/jvm/java-8-openjdk-amd64/bin/javac'. $ update-alternatives --display java java - auto mode link currently points to /usr/lib/jvm/java-7-openjdk-amd64/jre/bin/java /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-openjdk-amd64/jre/bin/java - priority 1061 slave java.1.gz: /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-openjdk-amd64/jre/man/man1/java.1.gz /usr/lib/jvm/java-7-openjdk-amd64/jre/bin/java - priority 1071 slave java.1.gz: /usr/lib/jvm/java-7-openjdk-amd64/jre/man/man1/java.1.gz /usr/lib/jvm/java-8-openjdk-amd64/jre/bin/java - priority 1069 slave java.1.gz: /usr/lib/jvm/java-8-openjdk-amd64/jre/man/man1/java.1.gz Current 'best' version is '/usr/lib/jvm/java-7-openjdk-amd64/jre/bin/java'. Note that javac points to the one in openjdk-8, while java points to openjdk-7. As a result, when I compile a java source file with javac, it is not possible to execute it with java because of the class version: $ javac t.java $ java -cp . t Exception in thread "main" java.lang.UnsupportedClassVersionError: t : Unsupported major.minor version 52.0 at java.lang.ClassLoader.defineClass1(Native Method) at java.lang.ClassLoader.defineClass(ClassLoader.java:800) at java.security.SecureClassLoader.defineClass(SecureClassLoader.java:142) at java.net.URLClassLoader.defineClass(URLClassLoader.java:449) at java.net.URLClassLoader.access$100(URLClassLoader.java:71) at java.net.URLClassLoader$1.run(URLClassLoader.java:361) at java.net.URLClassLoader$1.run(URLClassLoader.java:355) at java.security.AccessController.doPrivileged(Native Method) at java.net.URLClassLoader.findClass(URLClassLoader.java:354) at java.lang.ClassLoader.loadClass(ClassLoader.java:425) at sun.misc.Launcher$AppClassLoader.loadClass(Launcher.java:308) at java.lang.ClassLoader.loadClass(ClassLoader.java:358) at sun.launcher.LauncherHelper.checkAndLoadMain(LauncherHelper.java:482) As a workaround, I can configure the javac alternative manually to point to the one from openjdk-8, but I my opinion, that should not be necessary and the default should just work. -- System Information: Debian Release: stretch/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 4.0.0-1-amd64 (SMP w/8 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.utf8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.utf8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) Versions of packages openjdk-7-jdk depends on: ii libc6 2.19-18 ii libx11-6 2:1.6.3-1 ii openjdk-7-jre 7u79-2.5.5-1 Versions of packages openjdk-7-jdk recommends: ii libxt-dev 1:1.1.4-1+b1 Versions of packages openjdk-7-jdk suggests: pn openjdk-7-demo <none> ii openjdk-7-source 7u79-2.5.5-1 pn visualvm <none> -- no debconf information
