I tried to install the jdk SlackBuild. I downloaded the slackbuild and unpacked it. I followed the instructions to download the jdk from Oracle. What they gave me was jdk-11.0.2_linux-x64_bin.tar.gz. When I ran the slackbuild script I got an error message telling me

tar: /home/rsteff/Downloads/SlackBuilds/jdk/jdkBu66-linux-x64.tar.gz: Cannot open: No such file or directory
tar: Error is not recoverable: exiting now

I can see why, since the file Oracle provided is not what the slackbuild wants.

I figured that since I already installed the JDK on my desktop machine I could just copy the file I downloaded there from Oracle. Turns out that has changed, too. What's on my desktop machine is jdk-Bu192-linux-x64.tar.gz.

If I use the slackbuild script from the desktop machine to the laptop, should that work?
