    • Ubuntu 18.04, openjdk-11-jre
      The version drop down is unhelpfully preventing me from stating all affected versions: 2.1.7658, 2.1.9080, 2.1.9618.
    • Unconfirmed

      The deb writes "default-jre" as a dependency in the affected versions rather than the previously specified "oracle-java8-installer | openjdk-8-jre". default-jre depends on openjdk-11-jre.

      As noted in another issue MCL-11767 this breaks use of versions of minecraft earlier than 1.13, with no trivial work around. If you are not depending on java 11, please revert this dependency to java 8 (I have confirmed that indeed you are not by temporarily alterning my java install).
