Besides the FTBFS on i386 with openjdk-8: we are also moving to OpenJDK 11 for
buster, and openjdk-8 will be removed from testing in due time. Thus please
switch to openjdk 10 or 11 (or preferably to default-jdk).

This is blocking the curl transition due to the FTBFS on i386, so I'd appreciate
some quick action if possible.

Thanks,
Emilio
