Description
I've had some users of Intellij D Language plugin report problems when using the Microsoft JDK. The project is built using Gradle and when doing the gradle build the resulting error is output:
/home/********/.sdkman/candidates/java/11.0.13-ms/Packages does not exist.
Adding a directory named Packages to the root of the ms JDK solves the problem: https://github.com/intellij-dlanguage/intellij-dlanguage/issues/652#issuecomment-1312112121
I'm submitting here as there really shouldn't be a need for users to add a directory to their jdk and this 'Packages' directory is non-standard.
