[Impact]
Due to OpenJDK changes[1] it is impossible to install JRE 17 in supported releases below Lunar (Kinetic, Jammy, Focal, Bionic) on amd64, arm64 platform due to the configuration order (see comment)
A system with a pre-installed default JRE (e.g. JRE 11 in Jammy) is not affected.
[Suggested Fix]
Immediate fix:
- copy java.security.dpkg-new to java.security if .dpkg-new file is present but java.security is not.
Long term fix:
Backport
- https://code.launchpad.net/~vpa1977/ubuntu/+source/ca-certificates-java/+git/ca-certificates-java/+merge/438150
This merge proposal:
- removes dependency on JRE
- fixes command line for keytool call
- add autopkgtests
[Test Plan]
- autopkgtests must pass for all platforms
- Test package install in lxc container and ensure that race condition is reproduced for each release - ca-certificates java are configured before openjdk
----------------------cut------------------------------------
for release in bionic focal jammy kinetic; do
echo !!!!!!!!!!!!!!${release}!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
lxc launch images:ubuntu/${release} lp2019908
lxc exec lp2019908 -- apt install software-properties-common
lxc exec lp2019908 -- add-apt-repository ppa:vpa1977/ca-certificates-java-patch
lxc exec lp2019908 -- apt-get update
lxc exec lp2019908 -- apt-get -y install openjdk-17-jre-headless
lxc stop lp2019908
lxc delete lp2019908
echo !!!!!!TEST DONE for ${release}!!!!!!!!!
done
----------------------cut------------------------------------
[Where problems could occur]
The fix copies java.security but do not touch other files.
While this release can be tested, we are not protected from similiar regressions.

========================
looks like packages are updated on May-16 http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/universe/o/openjdk-17/
and its causing issues
[1] https://github.com/openjdk/jdk17u/commit/4be52ee572e4fd65f2ac66d5e78c711c8eb6a61e#diff-4d6411695be3dc177d5f0e85c5051c7cfca24c54e22518281b7d26fd858d1893
The failure is caused by the order of package configuration:
- openjdk-17 is unpacked but properties files still have dpkg_new extensions
- ca-certificates
- openjdk 17 now requires java.security file present (presently it was silently ignoring it) to intialise Security.
See:
- https:/
I will discuss today and convert this one or LP: #2003750 to SRU format to deploy the fix.
