oracle-java8-installer package pointing to wrong files

[Andrew McKown]

After the Java update to version 8u161 on Jan 16 the Ubuntu java 8 installer package is still pointing to the version 8u151 files. Those have been removed from Oracle's download site and are no longer valid. This causes the installer to fail. Please point the installer to the new 8u161 files. Below is an excerpt from trying to run this update on my system:

apt-get install oracle-java8-installer -y

Status changed to 'Confirmed' because the bug affects multiple users.

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. It seems that your bug report is not filed about a specific source package though, rather it is just filed against Ubuntu in general. It is important that bug reports be filed about source packages so that people interested in the package can find the bugs about it. You can find some hints about determining what package your bug might be about at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bugs/FindRightPackage. You might also ask for help in the #ubuntu-bugs irc channel on Freenode.

To change the source package that this bug is filed about visit https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/1744105/+editstatus and add the package name in the text box next to the word Package.

[This is an automated message. I apologize if it reached you inappropriately; please just reply to this message indicating so.]

[Ed-ekennedy (ed-ekennedy)]

I am also having the same exact error!

[Ed-ekennedy (ed-ekennedy)]

I think the bug needs to be sent to https://launchpad.net/~webupd8team/+archive/ubuntu/java?

[Brian Murray (brian-murray)]

Yes, this bug report is about a package which is not from the official Ubuntu archive and the webupd8team should be contacted about it.

[Andrew McKown (dadianton)]

You can't move bugs over to them. I reported this to that team
yesterday via their email link on that page but have heard no response
yet.

I have submitted the request to the webupd8 team now. Their bug
tracking was much harder to find as it was simply a small line of text
at the bottom of the page that just says to contact them about issues.

They don't have one. You have to email them to report the bug. That
is why this is so confusing. Go to https://launchpad.net/~webupd8team
and hit the contact admins in the upper right corner.

Hi all,

I have the exact same problem on my Tenants, u151/u152 are no more available on Oracle download site, have to switch to u162.

Regards
Pierre

[Daniel White (ddublya)]

I have this issue too, building weekly golden images via puppet.
Puppet module seeking 151 binaries and only 161 available.

D.

[Pierre (inthealps)]

Fixed !
Many thanks to webupd8 team !

Pierre

[Ed-ekennedy (ed-ekennedy)]

YAY!

[Gabriel K (gkohen)]

Thanks for the quick turnaround. Can anyone thing of any tests we can write to catch these ahead of time. Maybe run the build on daily cadence as this dependency is pointing to an external dynamics site.

[Daniel White (ddublya)]

Looking good here too.
So what about the next Java binary update - will, this be avoided in future?

[Artem Pisarev (temas)]

Oops, they did it again. 8u161 is missing, the current is 8u172.

[Ed-ekennedy (ed-ekennedy)]

Has it been fixed for 19.04?
