Hope you don't mind me hijacking the thread to ask if you've ever extracted an adoptopenjdk tarball and were able to use it for running a Swing GUI. The jdk10-openjdk (not bin, didn't try aur) package in arch works, but whatever x86_64 tarball I download from adopopenjdk won't display Swing GUIs. It just throws exceptions about font loading. Do you have relevant experience to share/hint?
