(In reply to Harald Eilertsen from comment #1)
If you go into a java port like /usr/ports/biology/gatk and type:
$ make "JAVA_VERSION=11 17 25" java-debug

, you will get output with the decisions made. It shows the possible JDKs, the
installed JDKs and the intersection of the two lists and what JDK is chosen for
JAVA_PORT_VERSION to actually use.

In your example it would indeed choose openjdk 11 because that is already
installed.
