OpenJDK 8 is neither available in Oldstable nor in Stable. So IMHO
this warning is not that wrong in Oldstable.
If you're too annoyed, you can add a lintian override for that
warning. See dh_lintian(1) for details.
Besides that this issue already has been fixed fixed in Lintian since
version 2.5.23 of June 2014 and the fix is included in Debian's
current stable release.
That version is also available via Debian Oldstable-Backports, so
another way to solve that issue for you is to just use lintian from
backports.
Regards, Axel
