Gendre,
Note that Java 11 is not available on several distributions, for example Debian testing. JMRI recommends Java 17.

Hello,
I would like to know if JMRI developers have planned to release JMRI as a
Flatpak, on Flathub.
Flatpak offer a good way to ensure the app to run in the same
environment, for each GNU/Linux system that support Flatpak. Which is a
lot of them. And distributing the app on Flathub will make it
downloadable and installable with a simple click.
I have already started to see if it's technically feasible. For what I
have tested, JMRI run well with OpenJDK 11 java runtime. And Flathub
provide an extension to the Freedesktop sdk that contain the OpenJDK 11
Java Runtime Environment (JRE) and Java Developement Kit (JDK):
This repository README also provide an example of Flatpak manifest to
package a Java app.
I can help on this. But I'm not a Java expert.
Best regards
