I just tried updating my 18.04 LTS to the Gradle 4.4.1-5~18.04 that just arrived via ubuntu-proposed, but I think the package still needs more work.

1) It should not switch to Java 11 by force. For a LTS, this is way too intrusive. It breaks many parts of my build system which I specifically built on an LTS because it's supposed to be stable. I think this can be fixed by still allowing a dependency to OpenJDK 8 and making sure update-alternatives isn't run durig the upgrade.

2) Even if you use OpenJDK 11, it spams with WARNING messages. This is a long standing bug:
