NoSuchMethodError: Matcher.quoteReplacement during sbt execution on Ubuntu

I installed sbt from the Typesafe repository as it is suggested here:

When I run sbt I'm facing the following error:

~/fun/sbt$ sbt
Starting sbt: invoke with -help for other options
java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: method java.util.regex.Matcher.quoteReplacement with signature (Ljava.lang.String;)Ljava.lang.String; was not found.

The only reason I can think of for sbt to fail this way is an old Java version. SBT requires Java 6 or later. Run java -version to know your version.
