Hello MadCatmkII, or anyone else affected,

Accepted ca-certificates-java into xenial-proposed. The package will
build now and be available at https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ca-
certificates-java/20160321ubuntu1 in a few hours, and then in the
-proposed repository.

Please help us by testing this new package.  See
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation on how
to enable and use -proposed.Your feedback will aid us getting this
update out to other Ubuntu users.

If this package fixes the bug for you, please add a comment to this bug,
mentioning the version of the package you tested and change the tag from
verification-needed-xenial to verification-done-xenial. If it does not
fix the bug for you, please add a comment stating that, and change the
tag to verification-failed-xenial. In either case, without details of
your testing we will not be able to proceed.

Further information regarding the verification process can be found at
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/PerformingSRUVerification .  Thank you in
advance!

** Description changed:

  [Impact]
  
  ca-certificates-java currently depend on openjdk-7 which no longer exist
  after Trusty. It triggers failures while doing release upgrade, due to
  triggers loop.
  
  [Test Case]
  
  # Install Ubuntu server 14.04.5 + all the updates.
  (I used "uvt-kvm create trustylp1723198 release=trusty")
  
  sudo apt-get update
  sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
  
  # Install ca-certificates-java and man-db.
  sudo apt-get install ca-certificates-java man-db
  
  # Upgrade to 16.04 LTS.
  sudo do-release-upgrade
  
  # Error:
  ..........................
  Removing ca-certificates-java (20130815ubuntu1) ...
  Removing openjdk-7-jre-headless:amd64 (7u151-2.6.11-2ubuntu0.14.04.1) ...
  dpkg: cycle found while processing triggers:
  chain of packages whose triggers are or may be responsible:
  man-db -> ca-certificates
  packages' pending triggers which are or may be unresolvable:
  ca-certificates: update-ca-certificates
  man-db: /usr/share/man
  dpkg: error processing package ca-certificates (--remove):
  triggers looping, abandoned
  
  [Regression Potential]
  
   * Regression is low risk. Xenial and late doesn't have openjdk-7
  available in the archive. It has openjdk-8. This will have the effect to
  make the release upgrade to work correctly when ca-certificates-java is
  installed. This patch has been already proven to work in Artful, Bionic
  and Debian upstream.
  
- * The actual "ca-certificates-java" install openjdk-9 (universe), with
- this fix the new package will install openjdk-8 (main) which is
- preferable. Meaning there will be a change behaviour. For more detail:
- See Comment #16, #17 & #18. Foundation is fine with the behaviour
- change.
+ * The current "ca-certificates-java" installs openjdk-9 (universe), with
+ this fix the new package will install openjdk-8 (main).  This is a
+ change in behaviour, but ca-certificates-java's dependency on openjdk-7
+ -jre-headless | java-runtime-headless means the package manager handling
+ of the dependency is inconsistent anyway. For more detail: See Comment
+ #16, #17 & #18.

  [Original Description]
  Test Case:
  1. Install Ubuntu server 14.04.5 + all the updates
  2. Install ca-certificates-java and man-db
  3. Reboot
  4. Upgrade to 16.04 LTS with do-release-upgrade and proceed with the upgrade
  
  Actual Result
  Upgrade fails with
  Removing ca-certificates-java (20130815ubuntu1) ...
  Removing openjdk-7-jre-headless:amd64 (7u151-2.6.11-2ubuntu0.14.04.1) ...
  dpkg: cycle found while processing triggers:
   chain of packages whose triggers are or may be responsible:
    man-db -> ca-certificates
   packages' pending triggers which are or may be unresolvable:
    ca-certificates: update-ca-certificates
    man-db: /usr/share/man
  dpkg: error processing package ca-certificates (--remove):

  I have no further information to give at this time except to say that
  there were several errors during the upgrade process from 14.04.
