[arch-general] OpenJFX package out-of-date

[Kyle Laker]

Sorry, I thought I had gotten a successful build in my attempts, but I
apparently was mistaken. I certainly got the sources to download,
though. In any case, I apologize that the patch I provided was
incomplete and not thoroughly tested. I appreciate the work you did to
get a successful update of this package working, and I will be sure to
test more thoroughly in the future. Thanks again!
