Are you aware of the package 'java-package'? For a 3rd party software that required Oracle SDK with Swing it generated a debian package for me. Basically back then it turned jdk-8u191-linux-x64.tar.gz into oracle-java8-jdk_8u191_amd64.deb I do not remember how exactly I called it, but it was easy enough. You still would need to update the package manually, so I only use it for that special program and use update-alternatives to switch to the lastest openjdk in Debian otherwise.
