I have quickly test, and haven't had any problem to upgrade from actual package of "ca-certificates-java" from the archive to the "ca- certificates-java" (including the openjdk-8 fix) on my PPA.
Seems like in this case openjdk-9 remain and openjdk-8 is discard. Keeping the most recent openjdk version installed. But I would gladly appreciate foundation team review to double-check. # sudo apt-get install ca-certificates-java -y -------------------------- Reading package lists...
