I'm getting "error: target not found: java-openjfx>=11" when i try to build the latest version.

Any plans to get that dependency updated?

Otherwise as @auslaander said the only option is to stick to the install and older version.

4.20 didnt work for me aswell, I tried everything but then I tried 4.14 with jdk8 and it worked instantly.. so if you dont really need the latest version go for the last version without jdk11

If you want to try 420. Install java-openjfx-bin from aur. Edit the PKGBUILD to use 4.2.0 as pkg_ver and SKIP sha256sum(or update them) Edit /usr/bin/bluej to include openjfx libraries in -cp flag. eg. https://pastebin.com/mggNC17g

Should work. The menu is buggy on xorg/i3, not sure about other DE's.

Just to let everyone know I'm waiting on openjfx packaging for java 11 to get resolved before updating the package.

The current version requires Java 8. BlueJ 4.2.0 is expected to support JDK 11. See: https://www.bluej.org/faq.html#bluej-with-java-9-plus

Okay, this doesn't work with JDK10 or JDK7, but it does work with JDK8. I didn't check JDK9. Please fix the package.

If someone wants to upgarde this, here's the PKGBUILD: https://pastebin.com/fMykQhKQ (with checksums updated) No more cahnges are neccessary for v4.1.3

DarkWav commented on 2018-09-21 14:33 (UTC)

Hello, i think that version 4.1.2 of BlueJ is outdated as of 2018-09-07. I would be really happy if someone could update this to the latest version 4.1.3 (Probably doesn't even need PKGBUILD changes, just version). The .deb package can be found here: https://bluej.org/download/files/BlueJ-linux-413.deb And the source code can be found here: https://bluej.org/download/files/source/BlueJ-source-413.zip Aswell as the .jar installer here: https://bluej.org/download/files/BlueJ-generic-413.jar Thanks for your attention in advance!
