[Bug 1823453] [NEW] Apache fop raises exception NoSuchMethodError: java.nio.CharBuffer.limit(I)Ljava/nio/CharBuffer on Ubuntu 19.04

[Bernd Schlapsi]

Public bug reported:

On Ubuntu 19.04 (Beta) with the latest updates I get an error when
running fop

I tested it with the Hello World xml/xsl from the Apache Fop quickstart guide
https://xmlgraphics.apache.org/fop/quickstartguide.html

$ fop -xml name.xml -xsl name2fo.xsl -pdf name.pdf

$ fop -version
FOP Version 2.3

Under the hood Apache fop uses java-8-openjdk, because I tried to remove
all java versions and fop prints this error, when java-8-openjdk is not
available

$ /usr/bin/fop
/usr/bin/fop: 304: exec: /usr/lib/jvm/java-8-openjdk-amd64/bin/java: not found
