This happens to me in a VM where I set `language: python` but I also need to run an `sbt +compile`.

My understanding is that:  
`jdk: openjdk8` won’t work because my language is set to python. How can I work around this?

See line `/usr/local/lib/jvm/openjdk11` in my output here: [https://travis-ci.org/combust/mleap/jobs/650122062](https://travis-ci.org/combust/mleap/jobs/650122062)
