In more recent JDKs, the pack200 has been removed from the JDK itself as of JDK 14 I believe (see https://openjdk.java.net/jeps/367). As such, it may be necessary to locate another earlier version (maybe JDK 11 or 8 the previous Long Term releases) of the JDK where the unpack200 is still present. Once selected, I believe it should be possible to unpack and install things.
