What version of the Java SDK do you have? Is JAVA_HOME defined as an environment variable?

Hi,

java-12-openjdk,
On arch Linux there is not JAVA_HOME variable, however, I set it, still, the installation fails.

Thank you

I think the problem is most likely that we haven't added support (or yet tried) Open JDK verision 12. I'll see if I can find time to do an install with Open JDK 12 and see if I can get it to work.

Thank you so much, I will install using another version of open JDK,
