Unfortunately, such files do not exist. You can follow these instructions to install OpenJDK for Linux distributions that use DEB and RPM packages.
You could extract the files from the DEB (using
dpkg-deborar) or RPM (usingrpm2cpio[1] [2] [3]) packages and create your own tarball.Or, if you’re up for the challenge, you can compile your own build using the build instructions. The nice thing about building your own is that you can create a debug build (Google does not return much information on debug builds, but you can look at the Makefile for some information), which avails useful debugging options.
