Public bug reported: Alternatives for jexec have been excluded from the latest version of openjdk-8-jre-headless (8u402) and this causes update-java-alternatives to throw the following error:
update-alternatives: error: alternative /usr/lib/jvm/java-8-openjdk- amd64/jre/lib/jexec for jexec not registered; not setting Solution: Reference to jexec should be removed from /usr/lib/jvm/.java-1.8.0-openjdk-amd64.jinfo since update-java- alternatives uses this file to determine what alternatives to create.
