Jenkins 2.54 started requiring Java 8 [1], but the 2.54 package in the Jenkins-provided Debian package repository [2] still depends on openjdk-7-jre-headless. This means that on distros that do not provide Java 8 the package will successfully update but fail to start.

Fyi, i have succeed in running jenkins 2.54 on debian jessie by using openjdk-8-jre-headless from backports, and update-alternatives to config java 8.
But this is clearly not a clean situation
