Bug#842284: visualvm: performs update check/phones home

[Roberto C. Sanchez]

Package: visualvm
Version: 1.3.8-1
Severity: normal

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA512

When launched, the visualvm package phones home to perform an update
check.  When launching it today, I was presented with a notification
informing me that version 1.3.9 was available and it provided a link to
the github.io project site.  On a Debian system for an application
installed from maintained packages, there is no reason for the
application to phone home.

Please disable the phone home check and associated notification dialog.

Regards,

- -Roberto
