--- Comment #4 from Per Bothner per@bothner.com --- I tried running try-fedora-review (see https://pagure.io/FedoraReview) and then installed the resulting rpm.
I then tried building Kawa (https://www.gnu.org/software/kawa/) using /usr/bin/javac - and that failed to find the jfx classes.
As a work-around I created in /usr/lib/jvm/java-1.8.0-openjdk-1.8.0.121-11.b14.fc27.x86_64/jre/lib/ext a link to /usr/lib/jvm/openjfx/rt/lib/ext/jfxrt.jar . That allowed the compile to succeed. However, the resulting executable failed to run. I didn't continue, but it's plausible that java couldn't find the right shared libraries.
Since openjdk is installed in a versioned directory (with a nest of alternatives links), we have to install openjfx using a compatible layout.
