FULL PRODUCT VERSION :
java version "1.8.0_92"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.8.0_92-b14)
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 25.92-b14, mixed mode)

A DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM :
java.time.Duration#between(LocalDate, LocalDate) will always throw an exception.

java.time.LocalDate#until(Temporal, TemporalUnit) does not accept NANOS or SECONDS as the ChronoUnit type, which is what is called from Duration.between

STEPS TO FOLLOW TO REPRODUCE THE PROBLEM :
java.time.Duration duration = java.time.Duration.between(java.time.LocalDate.of(2017, 1, 1), java.time.LocalDate.of(2017, 1, 2));

// This will always throw an exception instead of returning a duration of one day

EXPECTED VERSUS ACTUAL BEHAVIOR :
EXPECTED -
It should return a Duration of one day instead of throwing an error.
ACTUAL -
throws UnsupportedTemporalTypeException("Unsupported unit: SECONDS");

ERROR MESSAGES/STACK TRACES THAT OCCUR :
java.time.temporal.UnsupportedTemporalTypeException: Unsupported unit: Seconds
at java.time.LocalDate.until(LocalDate.java:1614)
at java.time.Duration.between(Duration.java:475)

REPRODUCIBILITY :
This bug can be reproduced always.

---------- BEGIN SOURCE ----------
java.time.Duration duration = java.time.Duration.between(java.time.LocalDate.of(2017, 1, 1), java.time.LocalDate.of(2017, 1, 2));

---------- END SOURCE ----------

CUSTOMER SUBMITTED WORKAROUND :
ChronoUnit.DAYS.between(LocalDate, LocalDate)

not an exact workaround, but gets the number of days (which is what I needed)
