Hi, some mounts ago I wrote a code able to read/write USB port in order to communicate with an Arduino 2560. The code is written in Java. The code works perfectly with Ubuntu 14.04. Some days ago I upgraded to Ubuntu 16.04 from scratch (completely erasing the OS partition) and I installed the GNU IO library. I expected to run my code as in the previous OS 14.04 but when I tired to execute my code I noticed a problem. The problem was the inability to access the /dev/ttyACM0 (using the root user and a normal 'dialout' user). In order to resolve the problem I tried to update the OpenJDK because Java8 was already installed. During the upgrade I got the bug #1550950. After this partial upgrade GNU IO was not runnable: the problem was not solved. I resolved the problem using galternatives and setting for each j* voice the 1081 choice (in each place where it was present).
Please write me if you need more explanation.
