Bug#802701: freemind: Freemind doesn't start with OpenJDK-8

[Vincent Smeets]

Package: freemind
Version: 0.9.0+dfsg2-1
Severity: normal

Hallo,

I have installed OpenJDK-7 and OpenJDK-8.
Freemind is starting normally with OpenJDK-7 but hangs in the splash
screen when started with OpenJDK-8.

When I start freemind without any settings
  $ freemind
it will use OpenJDK-8 (from java-wrapper) and doesn't start completely.
The spalsh screen will appear as an gray rectangle but with no image in
it. The application will hang at that point. A ^C or kill -TERM doesn't
work I can only recover by a kill -KILL to the JVM.
The command:
  $ JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/jvm/java-8-openjdk-amd64 freemind
gives the same behaviour.

In contrast to that, the command:
  $ JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/jvm/java-7-openjdk-amd64 freemind
works normally and starts the application in a normal way.

Regards,
Vincent
