I think we would need jdk11 by now (or soon jdk12, but I am not
sure about package availability at the various distros for 12).
I agree. It's a bit of a problem, because the availability of the N-1
JDK needed to compile is not regularly available through the normal
distro package system, as other dependencies are.
I suspect we should stop referring to using the system package
installer for the boot jdk, and instead point to http://jdk.java.net
for the core platforms, and https://adoptopenjdk.net/ for the rest.
Actually Jesper opened this the other day:

Subject: RFR: 8219920: dependency help output in configure-step :
support zypper tool
Hello, please review the following change .
Currently the configure-step outputs help for a number of
packages + related installation calls in case of missing
dependencies (like cups / alsa etc.) .
This help output step covers a few tools (like apt-get).
However the OpenSUSE / SLES tool zypper is not supported .
This change adds output for zypper .
