Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make
Ubuntu better. We are sorry that we do not always have the capacity to
look at all reported bugs in a timely manner.

Oracle has dropped the leadership of the OpenJFX 8 project [1] and
nobody else took it over, so it is pretty much dead.

According to the official OpenJFX website [2] it is being developed at
https://github.com/openjdk/jfx and as of now the download page indicates
that the only supported versions are 11 (LTS version), 15, and 16 [3].

That said, there is one repository still backporting some fixes to
OpenJFX 8u [4] which, should anyone volunteer, could be used to create a
new openjfx-8 package.
