Maybe I'm clutching at straws and/or misunderstanding the whole Homebrew idea, but:
I need JDK8 in homebrew, which isn't available anymore to Homebrew due to some licensing issues [e.g., https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew-cask-versions/issues/7253 ]; JDK9 and newer cause a cascade of errors. However it still is available (after clicking and "agree with T&Cs") directly from Oracle, and installs no problem.
So my last hope is: Is there a way to somehow move this working JDK8 into my 'homebrew ecosystem'?

What about using OpenJDK instead?
