Eu instalei o openjdk-8 (do repositório oficial) com apt-get install openjdk-8-jre-headless openjdk-8-jre openjdk-8-jdk
e alternativas atualizadas com update-alternatives --config java
agora
$ update-alternatives --get-selections|grep java

então muita ferramenta ainda usa java 7. Como tornar o java 8 a versão real / default? Pode ser reinstalar o java 8 para que seja automaticamente definido como padrão, em vez de alterar cada alternativa para o java 8?
Além disso, quando tento remover o java 7, o apt-get tenta remover muitos pacotes:# apt-get purge openjdk-7-jreheadless openjdk-7-jre openjdk-7-jdk
