Package: jabref
Version: 3.8.2+ds-5
Severity: normal
Dear Maintainer,
I recently tried to start JabRef using my default Java8 version. I got the following error:
Unrecognized option: --add-modules=java.se.ee
Error: Could not create the Java Virtual Machine.
Error: A fatal exception has occurred. Program will exit.
I realised, that --add-modules=java.se.ee might be needed for Java9, so I installed openjdk-9-jre which solved the problem.
Just for completnes the output of DEBUG_WRAPPER=1 jabref --debug and dpkg -l "openjdk*" before and after the update to java9:
