For your convenience - and for those not speaking German - the error message means the following.
ErrorMessage: "»installed openjdk-14-jre-headless:amd64-Script in the package at post-installation«-subprocess returned with value 2.

[Balint Harmath (bharmath)]

I happen to have amd64 arch, but could not reproduce the bug typing 'sudo apt install openjdk-14-jre-headless'.
From the DpkgHistoryLog.txt it seems to me that this command was used.

However - from the DpkgTerminalLog.txt - it seems to me as though an other /bin/java executable or symbolic link had been installed previously. The problem may be that the openjdk package would like to use the same path.

Then it is an openjdk-14-jre-headless package issue.

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

Every time I install something new or I update something, apt trys to run the post install script of openjdk-14-jre-headless again and the error pops up every time.
That is annoying.
