Build fails because openjdk-8-jre is not found about openjdk-runtime

[joakime]

openjdk-8-jre is part of the unstable/sid suite in debian.

https://packages.debian.org/unstable/java/openjdk-8-jre

According to debian.org, there is no stable release of openjdk-8-jre

https://packages.debian.org/stable/java/openjdk-8-jre (will return an error)

stable/jessie only has openjdk-7-jre as its latest.

https://packages.debian.org/stable/java/openjdk-7-jre

Move the install of openjdk-8-jre down to the sid section in the Dockerfile and it should start to work.

openjdk-8-jre is also listed in jessie-backports (currently at version 8u111).

https://packages.debian.org/jessie-backports/openjdk-8-jre

Of note, there is also a openjdk-8-jre-headless which seems like a good fit for this image, and its available at version 8u102 as well.

@joakime Do you also get an error when you run mvn clean install on this repo? I'm trying to see if this is due to my environment because this build used to work.

Yes, the build fails for me with 8u102, but not with 8u111.

The 8u102 version is not present in the Packages.gz on the debian repos, so its not possible to install the 8u102 version anymore using the version qualifier found in commit 4cac10b

If I use commit 056e113 (the parent of the above commit) to build it works (this is the commit before the version qualified commit)

The Dockerfile in this prior commit looks like this: https://github.com/GoogleCloudPlatform/openjdk-runtime/blob/056e113ca2174acaeb4db3f24a3131dad2006644/openjdk8/src/main/docker/Dockerfile

For me even 8u111 fails, but I think that is due to my environment.
