-----------------------------------

             Summary: Update Travis base image from trusty to xenial
                 Key: FLINK-12516
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-12516
             Project: Flink
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Travis
    Affects Versions: 1.9.0
            Reporter: Nico Kruber
            Assignee: Nico Kruber
             Fix For: 1.9.0


Currently, our Travis tests are running with a {{trusty}} environment which is officially not supported by Ubuntu anymore. It also brings old system libraries which blocks unit tests for FLINK-11579.

I propose to update to xenial (Ubuntu 16.04 LTS) which is still supported until 2021-04.

Since Travis doesn't support oraclejdk8 on xenial, however, this also implies a switch to openJDK 8.
