[Slackbuilds-users] jdk and sbopkg

I believe that Oracle's jdk tarball cannot be downloaded without human
intervention - i.e. one must agree to whatever it is that Oracle specifies,
before the tarball can be downloaded. This is not a big deal for
Slackbuilds, but it is a pain for sbopkg. In fact, it is a bit of a pain
for any packages (e.g. libreoffice) that depend on jdk, if one wants to
build them with sbopkg.

Given that Oracle is not likely to change their policy any time soon, is it
worth the while even allowing to install jdk with sbopkg, since it just
won't work? Or am I missing something, and jdk can indeed be installed with
sbopkg?
