and error follows as below:

dpkg: error processing package oracle-java8-set-default (--configure):
dependency problems - leaving unconfigured
No apport report written because MaxReports is reached already
                                                          Errors were encountered while processing:
oracle-java6-installer
oracle-java7-installer
oracle-java8-installer
oracle-java8-set-default
E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)

I guess this is due to filterations in my country and I do not know what I should do to fix it. Can you help me?

Try to use this:

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:webupd8team/java
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install oracle-java8-installer

Hope it will help

There are two ways of installing java in ubuntu machine.online(by ppa) 

 sudo add-apt-repository ppa:webupd8team/java 
 sudo apt-get update 
 sudo apt-get install oracle-java8-installer

and offline by following procedure given in the link. First download the jdk for ubuntu from official site of oracle best for your system architecture (tar.gz file) and then Follow the procedure step by step(copy instructions on terminal) **Make sure when u copy it on terminal change the whole jdk...... thing to the filename of jdk u just downloaded. Images shown are old so where ever it will be jdk 1.7.0_45 change it to proper jdk version(u can check which one is installed while following the procedure)

Link : http://m.wikihow.com/Install-Java-on-Ubuntu

Advantages of offline installer: u can install it again n again in case of system failure/reinstall and it is fast where as installing it via terminal will take time and u will need internet again to reinstall in case of system failure
