Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make
Ubuntu better. We are sorry that we do not always have the capacity to
look at all reported bugs in a timely manner.
Oracle has dropped the leadership of the OpenJFX 8 project [1] and
nobody else took it over, so it is pretty
Personally, I have given up on that and moved to using sdkman
(https://sdkman.io) for handling Java variants, this so far seems the
best / most reliable way to get different Java versions (including 8.x
series) to work on recent Linux distributions. Java packaging in Debian-
based distributions
FYI, so far I have not found a way to compile openJFX 8 from source on
Ubuntu 20.4. I've created this bug on openJFX to hopefully resolve that.

Is there anyway we could increase the priority of this issue? The
workaround of pinning to 8u161-b12-1ubuntu2 because that package no
longer exists. There are MANY codebases out there that are still stuck
in Java 8 and so far it seems that the only way to get openJFX with
OpenJDK 8 is to compile

OpenJFX-11 does not work with OpenJDK-8
To manage notifications about this bug go to:
I attempted to compile JFX 8 from source manually, but it errors out.
Can somebody try this and see if you can get any further? (I'm on
19.10).

It should possibly "just" be consistent. JavaFX *always* depends upon a
particular JDK. Either make different versions of openjfx available for
different openjdks
@herrsaalfeld Instead of using apt-mark hold, I would recommend to rank
the origin higher, so that in - the unlikely case - there will be an
update published, it actually arrives.

I would like to add that the proposed workaround to downgrade the
openjfx packages is NOT a solution because no security updates will be
available. The correct solution is to provide an openjfx-8 package as
proposed by the TO or to roll back the openjfx package to version 8.
The current openjfx
Thank you pascal, herrsaalfeld and others! This solution worked also for
me on Ubuntu 18.10 when using Mediathekview.
ps.:I had to reboot; maybe a logout/login would do it also

This bug also effects the greenfoot project.
Since the PPA ppa:webupd8team/java is discontinued, there is no way to
run greenfoot under Ubuntu.
I'm a teacher and it would be very helpful to have an openjfx-8 package
so that i can run greenfoot.
```
$ greenfoot
Exception in thread "main"
ok. This works:
```
sudo apt install openjfx=8u161-b12-1ubuntu2 libopenjfx-java=8u161-b12-1ubuntu2
libopenjfx-jni=8u161-b12-1ubuntu2

Hmmm, ok, I am unsure how Oracle and OpenJDK/JFX relate to each other,
and whether the Open* variants will continue to see any community
updates. The whole post-Java8-world still is a difficult thing to
handle.

I'm aware of this, I was merely pointing out that the lack of oracle
updates for java 8 now removes one of the possible workarounds, making
the only still-working workaround.
I'm not familiar with the rules on the Ubuntu Bugtracker, but doesn't
this effectively now make this a "security" bug?
Yes, but the suggested approach ("Would it be possible to supply an
openjfx-8 package, similar to the openjdk-{8,11}-{jdk,jre}?") would both
fix this problem and make versioning of the openjdk- and openjfx-
packages (which, despite being separate packages, are pretty closely
tied to each other)
As of a few weeks ago, Oracle will no longer supply free updates
(security or otherwise) to oracle-jdk/jre-8. So now the only way to get
Java 8-only applications, which still constitute a large portion is to
use pinning of the openjfx package.

Stumbled into this problem here as well both with a couple of internal
Java applications and some FLOSS apps such as mediathekview
(https://mediathekview.de/) in Germany.
Currently, Java 11 -> Java 8 downgrade or even installing both in
parallel on any Ubuntu/Debian system works well, however for
On bionic, you will also have to downgrade libopenjfx-jni

The problem with the "get oracle java" workaround is that oracle java is
no longer free (as in beer):

add bionic repo to your apt-sources:

maybe you should add "updates" or "security" repo too.

I was able to copy the files from the openjfx package in 18.04 into my
18.10 manually and was able to launch Oracle SQLDeveloper which is what
I needed the package for.

I've hidden my last comment because it's wrong.
I confirmed the author of this bug is right.
Yes, OpenJDK-8 cannot read the OpenJFX-11-Jars.
Yes, Java-8 apps do not run in Java-11.
But why does Jconsole report an empty/unavailable bootclasspath for
OpenJDK-11?

Your app may be incompatible for other reasons.
The app I'm working with shows an inability to load the javaFX libraries
until I loaded them from old debs I pulled from Debian. Then I
prevented them from being updated.

Are you sure about this?
I just tried Java-11 in order to find out if my app is Java-11-compatible.
The app crashed with the exact same exceptions which makes me think
something else is wrong.
It's telling it cannot find javafx/concurrent/Task which is contained in
