First, a clarification: I'm not yet using the android* packages for building my Android apps. I would very much like to, but they seemed incomplete and outdated whenever I checked.

Rather, I'm using the Android SDK downloaded from Google and brought up to date by running "sdkmanager --update".

But I do use the Ubuntu supplied Gradle 3.4.1, OpenJDK 8 packages as well as several standlone SDK tools like apksigner, apktool, adb and some more. I described everything in e.g. this README:

https://github.com/bitcoin-wallet/bitcoin-wallet/blob/master/wallet/README.md#building-the-development-version

So yes, the Android builds work with OpenJDK 8, Gradle 3.4.1 under Ubuntu 18.04 LTS. On OpenJDK 11, Gradle 4.4.1 under Ubuntu 18.04 LTS-proposed the described issues appear. All issues I reported are perfectly reproducable. I will test OpenJDK 10 in a moment, but from memory when I updated Bionic I had similar issues until I uninstalled OpenJDK 10 which fixed all problems I had.
