Do you have a specific reason for Java 8? Oracle Open Sourced' their
arm port to the openjdk poroject

https://openjdk.java.net/jeps/297

http://mail.openjdk.java.net/pipermail/aarch32-port-dev/2016-August/000406.html

They also locked up Java 8 behind a login, that's why any of our old
"tutorials" don't work..

For example, we use to ship a "oracle-java8-installer", that package
broke as soon as Oracle forced the login window..

Just switch to buster and grab openjdk-11
