Bug#834552: java-wrappers: jvm-list.sh does not include $__jvm_gcj5 and $__jvm_openjdk8 in aliases

Package: java-wrappers
Version: 0.1.28
Severity: normal

/usr/lib/java-wrappers/jvm-list.sh contains:

[...]
# Now, free runtimes:
__jvm_gcj2="/usr/lib/jvm/java-*-gcj-4.* "
__jvm_gcj5="/usr/lib/jvm/java-1.5*-gcj-4.* "
__jvm_openjdk6="/usr/lib/jvm/java-6-openjdk-$__arch /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-openjdk"
__jvm_openjdk7="/usr/lib/jvm/java-7-openjdk-$__arch /usr/lib/jvm/java-7-openjdk"
__jvm_openjdk8="/usr/lib/jvm/java-8-openjdk-$__arch /usr/lib/jvm/java-8-openjdk"

# And a few aliases
__jvm_gcj="$__jvm_gcj2"
__jvm_openjdk="$__jvm_openjdk7 $__jvm_openjdk6"
[...]

I find surprising to see that $__jvm_gcj5 and $__jvm_openjdk8 are
not included in these aliases, respectively. I suppose that one
should have:

__jvm_gcj="$__jvm_gcj5 $__jvm_gcj2"
__jvm_openjdk="$__jvm_openjdk8 $__jvm_openjdk7 $__jvm_openjdk6"

Note: I've noticed this problem because the jing / trang sh wrappers
do:

find_java_runtime openjdk sun || find_java_runtime

and if openjdk-8-jre is the only installed openjdk runtime, then one
gets a spurious warning:

[warning] /usr/bin/jing: No java runtime was found

or

[warning] /usr/bin/trang: No java runtime was found

(though this warning was useful to find this bug, I don't think
it should be there, because jing/trang can run with the JDK found
by the second find_java_runtime, and I'm going to report another
bug against src:jing-trang about this).
