Before 2026/vote_002 is decided, I’ll rather put my remaining
spare time into bugfixing, rather than updating software versions.
(There’s actually at least one specific package I do have in mind.)

If you would prefer to update src:openjdk-8 yourself, be my guest.
I am sorry this comes after I’ve said I’d try to get it in but this
looming over the project refocuses priorities.
