[Debian-med-packaging] Thanks for uploading canu, but how to backport mhap to Jessie?

[Andreas Tille]

Hi Afif,

I noticed your upload of canu "right in time" when my colleagues
intended to use it.  I tried to backport mhap but failed since when
building in a Jessie chroot it always pulls in openjdk-7-jdk despite I
specified openjdk-8-jdk explicitly.  Since both JDKs are installed
version 7 remains the default and I have not managed to force the
build using javac from openjdk-8-jdk.

Any hint or should I try to contact debian-java list?

Kind regards

      Andreas.
