Oracle java has been maintainer-needed since august 2019,
no one stepped up.
Removal in 30 days.

If someone wants to save the javafx revdeps, best way will be
packaging zulufx community [1], I can provide some guidance
on packaging it, should not be too hard.

The mask on app-forensics/sleuthkit seems to be faulty/overkill: 
optionally depends on java, only uses oracle-jdk on 4.7.0.

Thanks! my grep misfired.
I removed it from package.mask, and masked java useflag for 4.7.0 instead.

[Georgy Yakovlev]

took a while, removed.

I was able to save jabref-bin, works fine with openjdk:8
geogebra now availabie as geogebra-bin and works with openjdk8 and 11.
sleuthkit was spared.

rest is gone, but if someone wants to restore - patches welcome.
