It looks like Debian hasn't supported openjdk-8 since Stretch. Bullseye is on openjdk-11 - is that no good?

nope, need java 8

You'll need to download it from Oracle or Azul. We rely on Debian for Java support, so if they don't have it, there's not much we can do.

If you're feeling both very brave & fearlessly motivated, then there is an answer, more likely an adventure, to be found at https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/699507/how-can-i-install-java-8-on-debian-11-bullseye. However: the voice of experience suggests that there may be issues with dependencies. Back stuff up first—preferably try this on a second copy of your existing OS.

And at that point you are very much taking your own responsibility, especially for any unanticipated outcomes.

HTH,
