Description
Hello,
I was trying to compile IGB on my debian machine. I unfortunately encountered an error. Please see the two log files with full stack trace and full debug logging: one with -DskipTests=true (IGB.log) and one without (IGB_skip.log).
Is there anything I could do ?
Thank you in advance.

Thank you for getting in touch and sending the error messages.
The basic problem is that your Debian system's java installation does not include JavaFX, one of the graphics libraries IGB requires.
You can fix this by installing and using Oracle's Java.
To do that, download the latest bug fix release of Oracle's Java version 1.8:
https://www.oracle.com/java/technologies/javase-jdk8-downloads.html
You will need to configure your system to use this version of java rather than OpenJDK
Let me know how it goes!
