Yes, Maven is exactly in the same situation - I don't see any dropdown to select from, only a raw text field. I opened a JIRA to track this: https://issues.jenkins-ci.org/browse/JENKINS-31977 The way I solved it was to install the tools locally and then, in Jenkins, not use any installer, just point to the local tool. Cheers, Eugen.
