oracle-java8-installer again inflates the priorities for the alternatives

[Matthias Klose]

Hi,

The oracle-java8-installer package in the webupd8team PPA again inflates the 
priorities for the alternatives, as in looking for the highest available 
alternative, then adding one to it and using that as the new alternative value. 
  This is not how it should be, and even wrong when you install multiple 
oracle-java*-installer packages. You seem to have an oracle-java8-set-default 
package which explicitly should do that, don't mess around with the priorities 
for the alternatives.  Pretty please fix this in a way that you don't just 
inflate the priority of the alternatives.  I'm getting bug reports for the 
openjdk-8 packages which turn out as issues with the oracle-java8-installer 
packages. Tell people instead how to explicitly set alternatives, or to install 
the oracle-java8-set-default package.

Thanks, Matthias
