      To be able to install the very useful Language Tool extension for LibreOffice
      java 11 jre is needed. In the past fulfilling the needed requirement was not
      always easy.

      At least on sid and antiX 23 alpha testing version following works.
      I expect the same to apply for antiX 22 and probably earlier versions where
      java 11 can be installed.

      First step sudo apt install default-jre libreoffice-java-common

      After installation is completed

      In LO Writer open Tools then Options in the advanced tab tick use a java runtime
      environment, logout and back in to the WM which will allow LO to detect the newly
      installed packages on next start.

      Pls check, You should now see the detected JRE. Check apply then ok.
      In Tools Extension manager use get more extensions online to open default browser at
      LO Extensions site. Find Language tool,install it, Enjoy.
      Language tool addon is on one of the last pages of the available extensions.
