I agree with julian about the analysis. But I also think by providing a versionized break/replaces we can make the experiences for the jdk users smoother. The attached patch should ensure we replace the deprectated apt while still keeping the java8 packages on the system (which is ok, it does not contain a apt binary anymore).
