Insall icedtea-8-plugin on popOS

564 Views Asked by At

I'm trying to install icedtae-8-plugin on popOS and getting this error:

user@pop-os: 17:21:31 ~/Downloads/icedtea-web-1.8$ sudo apt-get install icedtea-8-plugin
Reading package lists... Done

Package icedtea-8-plugin is a virtual package provided by:
  oracle-java14-installer 14.0.1-1~linuxuprising1
  oracle-java11-installer-local 11.0.7-1~linuxuprising0
You should explicitly select one to install.

E: Package 'icedtea-8-plugin' has no installation candidate

But Java is already installed on my system:

haimkrupnik@pop-os: 17:25:08 ~/Downloads/icedtea-web-1.8$ java -version
java version "14.0.1" 2020-04-14
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 14.0.1+7)
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 14.0.1+7, mixed mode, sharing)

I tried to uninstall and reinstall but no matter what I do, I can't make it work.

Try running 'javaws <.jnlp file>', that's how I load BMC applets at work.
