I wonder if there are some legal ramifications to this. As far as I understand Packr redistributes Sun/Oracle JRE - does license allow them to do that? AFAIK JRE is under GPL, so it should be OK, but I am guessing Oracle still retained some copyright? (I am genuinly curious - it's been a long time since I touched non-Android Java)

I m under the impression that sun (and oracle) lets you freely redistribute the JRE runtime.

packr author here. I don't distribute any JRE. Doing so for the original Sun/Oracle JRE is indeed a problem. Doing so for OpenJDK is not.
