@Robert - Are you referring to OpenJFX for a Deb package. See that there is 
still no OpenJDK 8 package for Ubuntu/Debian, how annoying. OpenJFX (ARM) 
is reported to work on OpenJDK 8 (ARM).

Building OpenJDK is not for the faint of heart. Attempting to do so would 
likely result in a brain dump. Also a super computer would be required to 
do the build in quick time, which I don't have.

Luckily doing a build of OpenJFX in desktop Linux is straightforward and 
can be done in around 30 min on a Intel Core 2 Duo laptop for example.
