The last time I remember running any Java apps on Linux, they’d actually be launched by a launcher script that hardcodes a bunch of paths to look for a java installation and, a huge fraction of the time would get it wrong. Or they’d require a bunch of their own .jars and look for them in an installation path that isn’t easily relocatable. Or they’d bundle their own Java and turn into an even bigger nightmare. I definitely don’t remember it being just fine.
