Comment # 8 on bug 916052 from Fridrich Strba

I tried it on my Tumbleweed installation with these parameters:
fstrba@strbadell:~> rpm -q arphic-bsmi00lp-fonts
package arphic-bsmi00lp-fonts is not installed
fstrba@strbadell:~> rpm -q arphic-gbsn00lp-fonts
package arphic-gbsn00lp-fonts is not installed
fstrba@strbadell:~> rpm -q texlive-arphic-fonts
texlive-arphic-fonts-2013.90.svn15878-19.1.noarch

and the nimimum test case works like a charm with all 1.6, 1.7, 1.8 and 1.9

Then the JDK version for 7 is 1.7.0_75 (latest security update) and for 8 it is
1.8.0_40 (fresh release).
