I don't plan to support an openjfx-8 package, sorry that's too much
work. openjdk-8 remains in Buster only as a convenience to build or
bootstrap packages that cannot build with OpenJDK 11 only. The openjdk-8
package is not supported at runtime, so JavaFX applications have to
migrate to OpenJDK 11.
