This tutorial only use the Oracle Firefox Java support while Chrome and Chromium do not any more support.
Rather than using the jinfo file to register the plugin support we use the symobic link technics. Do you not forget to update it when upgrading.In the jinfo file we introduced in the Java Environment Tutorial there are some plugin support described:

#plugin xulrunner-1.9-javaplugin.so /usr/lib/jvm/java-8-oracle/jre/lib/i386/libnpjp2.so
plugin firefox-javaplugin.so /usr/lib/jvm/java-8-oracle/jre/lib/i386/libnpjp2.so
#plugin iceape-javaplugin.so /usr/lib/jvm/java-8-oracle/jre/lib/i386/libnpjp2.so

#plugin mozilla-javaplugin.so /usr/lib/jvm/java-8-oracle/jre/lib/i386/libnpjp2.so
#plugin midbrowser-javaplugin.so /usr/lib/jvm/java-8-oracle/jre/lib/i386/libnpjp2.so
#plugin xulrunner-javaplugin.so /usr/lib/jvm/java-8-oracle/jre/lib/i386/libnpjp2.so |
Only the Firefox Java plugin support is in use. In the update-alternatives Install and Remove we install or remove the Firefox Java plugin support :
