There are some problems with update-alternatives and environment variables

Can you please elaborate on that? I highly doubt the AdoptOpenJDK people will make it depend on systemd with some minor upgrade. Of course, if you switch from openjdk8 to 11 or 14 - who knows what will happen in future? But as as long as you stick with openjdk8 I find such a change highly unlikely.

=> solve your environment troubles and enjoy a stable setup.

LOL!  That would depend on your definition of "serious purposes".  Perhaps the issue is not Devuan but your purposes!

I need JDK too. And without a hacks.

There are some problems with update-alternatives and environment variables. Even old Slackware was more user friendly... no php (exept official) on 32bit systems, no java (exept official). But we have OpenRC. And tomorrow, people from adoptopenjdk will make a systemd dependence.... smile Devuan is not reliable and it is impossible to use devuan for serious purposes.

in the repos for Devuan Beowulf you can find the package nvidia-openjdk-8-jre.
I use it for programs that only run on Java 8. I think it's worth testing.
For programs that only run on Java 8 and NOT on Java 11 (from whatever source), nvidia-openjdk-8-jre could be your solution and you could stick to Devuan 3 / Beowulf. Please correct me if I'm wrong.
Good luck! - Andre

I know, that Beowulf isn't good enough smile But now, I need to run an application, depends on java8 under OS with 2-3 years of support.

It is difficult decision for me, but may be, i will choose Ubuntu.

Nevertheless it might be possible to install openjdk-8-jre from ASCII. Depends on the dependencies.

Give this a try:
Uncomment #deb http://deb.devuan.org/merged ascii main contrib non-free in your sources.list.
Run apt update
Then apt install -s -t ascii openjdk-8-jre
and look at the result. The -s simulates the installation only. If it looks good you may risk the installation without the -s option.
Don't forget to undo the uncomment and run apt update afterwards.

I do not want to use a package from another version. May be, it is possible to find a repository with devuan3 package of openjdk-8-jdk?
