Dependency alternative to openjdk-8-jdk missing

Status changed to 'Confirmed' because the bug affects multiple users.

This is fixed in fdroidserver 1.0.6-1 in Debian stretch-backports and buster/testing.

fdroidserver 1.0.6-1 is also included in Ubuntu/cosmic

Just tested fdroidserver 1.0.8-3 from Cosmic on Bionic and it seems to work! No further dependency upgrades necessary as far as I can tell, all deps were satisfied by packages from Bionic.

fixed in upstream microreleases
