 Description   

Branch 5.2.x is compatible with Java 6, but Java 6 is not supported anymore.
The problem is that branch can't be build with Java 7,8 because package com.sun.image.codec.jpeg was remove there.

Easiest solution would be remove FileThumbnailDialogPage app which depends on this package. Same solution was done for 5.3.x see https://git.magnolia-cms.com/projects/MODULES/repos/admininterface-legacy/commits/8a3f8833c5347b4f75471e5cd0066afa9fc22a05

when you say "not compatible" you mean you can't build it w/ J7/8, not that it would not run under those Java versions (as long as one affected class is not accessed), correct?
Personally, I'd leave it that way and build this module still w/ Java 6. Whomever is running it on Java 7/8 is already aware of the issue and not touching this class and whomever is still on Java 6 might need it.
Seems like least painful (for customer) solution for next couple of months when this branch is retired anyway.
