Hi, I have prepared an openjdk-8 update to 8u191, which will fix bugs 911925 [1] and 911847 [2].
Before this upload is done it would be very good to have the fix for jtreg's bug 913853 [3] in place. This is required/important because I have fixed openjdk-8's autopkgtests and they will run the exact same tests as the ones that run during the build. After that they execute jtdiff against both the saved results from build time and from the autopkgtest results. This allows the autopkgtest to catch possible regressions but all is this benefit is gone if the build time tests are run with jtreg 4.2-b13-1 where most of the tests fail to execute. Note: take the new autopkgtests with a grain of salt. As of now there are still some flaky tests in the 3 testsuites - I hope to either fix or filter them out when I have more data on them. On a side note, I am not sure how autopkgtests work on the debian infrastructure, but the ones in Ubuntu required me to request a bigger machine [4]. If anyone knows whether I need to request a similar exception on Debian, please let me know. The openjdk-8 for experimental has been uploaded to mentors [5,6].
