      Is Java 8 shipping with an 18 month old Ubuntu? Not likely.

        I was only talking in generalities, not about his specific situation.

          Looks like even on the current version that Java 7 is current on Ubuntu...

            Pretty sure it doesn't use true Java at all. OpenJava/OpenJDK/OpenJRE are what's used in Ubuntu

              Those are true Java, just not Oracle Java.

                  We've already established your manager is a moron and deliberately tries to sabotage your work. Have you asked him for a reason for these versions when they are all old?

                      Ask him if he's aware there are newer versions of some of those pieces of software and why he needs old software installed. You need to not give up asking until you have a legitimate reason.

                        What does taking a snapshot of the software mean to your manager? That's not a normal term. It doesn't mean anything specific in this instance.

                          Yup, I asked about this before, because his manager seems to love to make up terms.

                            In some ways that makes it impossible to do what he wants. In other ways, you can do anything and say you did what he wants.

                              Yeah, because what he says means nothing, you could technically do anything and say you thought it applied.
