Bug#1076752: openjdk-8 fails to build in Ubuntu oracular

[Vladimir Petko]

Package: openjdk-8
Version: 8u422-b05-1
Severity: wishlist

Dear Maintainer,

Due to dpkg changes in oracular[1] a number of packages fail to build due to
undefined variables.


In Ubuntu, the attached patch was applied to achieve the following:

  * d/rules: Include /usr/share/dpkg/buildflags.mk to avoid configure
    failure due to the undefined variables (LP: #2073806).


Thanks for considering the patch.
