I have an Ubuntu installation with Oracle JDK 1.8.0_141 that was installed using this guide.
tar file was extracted to /opt/jdk and below commands used to set java as default.
update-alternatives --install /usr/bin/java java /opt/jdk/jdk1.8.0_05/bin/java 100
update-alternatives --install /usr/bin/javac javac /opt/jdk/jdk1.8.0_05/bin/javac 100
java -version command works fine after these have been completed, but when I try to install maven using apt-get it tries to install default-jre rather than using this installed version.
Do you have any idea how I can change this default behavior?
java jdk default-programs jre maven-3

 The problem is that apt cares about packages, not programs. The formerly recommended way to install Oracle Java was from the webupd8 PPA however I'm not sure if that advice is still current. Otherwise, you could consider using- make-jpkgas described here davmail and JAVA INSTALLED MANUALLY (I've never tried this personally).

This was solved after setting the kava alternative
sudo update-alternatives --install "/usr/bin/java" "java" "/opt/jdk/jdk1.8.0_144/bin/java" 1
sudo update-alternatives --install "/usr/bin/javac" "javac" "/opt/jdk/jdk1.8.0_144/bin/javac" 1
sudo update-alternatives --install "/usr/bin/javaws" "javaws" "/opt/jdk/jdk1.8.0_144/bin/javaws" 1
It still install the default jdk when installing maven. But uses oracle jdk when building.
