> just get some openjdk distribution

From several sources:

- Oracle themselves, at jdk.java.net - Microsoft, at microsoft.com/openjdk - Red Hat ... - Azul Systems ... - Amazon - Bell Soft - Canonical (Ubuntu ships OpenJDK binaries built by them) - build yourself?



Just go to https://openjdk.org/ and click on the "download" link.

Or use your OS package manager and <pkgManager> install openjdk. Problem solved.

Just like any other software, you know ?


That download link takes you to jdk.java.net, which hosts OpenJDK builds built by Oracle.


I don't get it, what is wrong with that ? Those are OpenJDK binaries and also explicitly named as such not Oracle JDK binaries.


I am saying that those binaries are built by Oracle:

"Production and Early-Access OpenJDK Builds, from Oracle"

That's all.
