Vassal on Ubuntu -- no way

I report the error message:


Failed to load module “canberra-gtk-module”
WARNING: An illegal reflective access operation has occurred
WARNING: Illegal reflective access by VASSAL.tools.image.ImageIOImageLoader (file:/home/marco/VASSAL-3.2.17/lib/Vengine.jar) to field sun.java2d.cmm.ProfileDeferralMgr.deferring

Thus spake gnagnus:

I report the error message:

I can see from this error message that you’re using a version of Java which
is too new for VASSAL 3.2.17. You need to use Java 8 or earlier.

(VASSAL 3.3, which is in preparation, will work with Java 9 and later.)
