Public bug reported:

Running imagej fails with the following message:

   Open other images in this ImageJ panel as follows:
     imagej -p 3 <image1> [<image2> ... <imageN>]

   No JVM found to run ImageJ
   Please apt-get install a JVM to run ImageJ or 
   set JAVA_HOME if it's not a JVM from a Debian Package.

even though multiple JVM's are installed here.

The problem is that the /usr/bin/imagej script detects JAVA_HOME using

   JAVA_HOME=$(/usr/sbin/update-java-alternatives -l | grep openjdk |
sort | tail -1 | cut -d' ' -f 3)

which is empty as the output of update-java-alternatives -l is (note
multiple spaces between columns):

java-1.6.0-openjdk-amd64       1061       /usr/lib/jvm/java-1.6.0-openjdk-amd64
java-1.7.0-openjdk-amd64       1071       /usr/lib/jvm/java-1.7.0-openjdk-amd64
java-1.8.0-openjdk-amd64       1081       /usr/lib/jvm/java-1.8.0-openjdk-amd64

and cut -d' ' -f3 selects space. The solution is to squeeze multiple
spaces before running cut, so the line should read:

   JAVA_HOME=$(/usr/sbin/update-java-alternatives -l | grep openjdk |
sort | tail -1 | tr -s ' ' | cut -d' ' -f 3)

which then gives the correct output (/usr/lib/jvm/java-1.8.0-openjdk-
amd64 in my case) and makes imagej run as expected.
