but jdk 11 removed javax -- which is required for the process...

after installing corretto jdk 8 -- java is listed as 1.8.0 (following the ancient java practice of starting everything at 1)

and the doctor doesn't recognize that as a valid version...

The doctor is still showing the wrong 'diagnosis'. When will this fix be integrated?
