[BLUEJ-1240] Ubuntu Cosmic 18.10 /Debian-unstable have incompatible OpenJFX library
Debian/Ubuntu have "libopenjfx" package install OpenJFX 11, which is incompatible with OpenJDK 8 and therefore with current releases of BlueJ/Greenfoot. They should instead provide separate OpenJFX-8 and OpenJFX-11 packages.

Upstream Debian bug: [https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=910407]
Note the comment in Debian bug indicates they may not fix.
