Yes, it really has to be fixed.. by the people maintaining the third
party repository that has the actual bug in it. Ubuntu's core packages
can't put in workarounds for bugs in other repositories.

Bug description:
  This morning's update to the "apt" package (0.9.15.4ubuntu4) adds sun-
  java6-jdk to the Breaks/Replaces list for apt.  This unfortunately
  creates a conflict with oracle-java7-installer / oracle-
  java8-installer from ppa:webupd8team/java, both of which "Provide"
  sun-java6-jdk:

  apt (0.9.15.4ubuntu4) trusty; urgency=low

    Cherry pick fixes from the apt 1.0 branch:

    [ Michael Vogt ]
    * add sun-java{5,6}-jdk to breaks/replaces as that provided a "apt"
      binary as well
