I'm aware of this, I was merely pointing out that the lack of oracle updates for java 8 now removes one of the possible workarounds, making the only still-working workaround.

I'm not familiar with the rules on the Ubuntu Bugtracker, but doesn't this effectively now make this a "security" bug? Since pinning disables updates, as well as Oracle no longer providing security updates for JDK version 8?
