Should I use a version of Gradle < 7.0?

Hey, @stefanoconiglio .

I couldn't reproduce the issue using the Gradle wrapper included with the repo. It looks like a temporary issue. When I perform a request to the resource URL (http://maven.geotoolkit.org/javax/media/jai_core/1.1.3/jai_core-1.1.3.jar), the server responds with a 301 HTTP code redirecting to https://nexus.geomatys.com/repository/geotoolkit/javax/media/jai_core/1.1.3/jai_core-1.1.3.jar.

Can you try running ./gradlew distZip again?

I also couldn't reproduce the issue using JDK 11 and the provided gradlew. It then will use gradle 6.3 as defined in the gradle/wrapper/gradle-wrapper.properties. Using gradle 7 however doesn't seem to work yet and needs some adaptation, but at least in my case it doesn't seem to fail with the same error you provided.

In Gradle 7.x compile configurations were removed. Also, the build.gradle repositories will cause the build to fail due to the use of insecure http URLs. Here's a build.gradle that worked for me:

plugins {
    id 'org.openjfx.javafxplugin' version '0.0.8'
    id 'java'
    id 'application'
}

mainClassName = 'at.laborg.briss.Briss'
applicationDefaultJvmArgs = ["-Xms128m", "-Xmx1024m"]
def javaFxVersion = '11'

repositories {
    maven { url "https://clojars.org/repo" } // For jpedal
    maven { url "https://maven.geotoolkit.org/" } // For jpedal transitive dependencies
    mavenCentral()
}

dependencies {
    implementation 'com.itextpdf:itextpdf:5.5.10'
    implementation 'org.jpedal:jpedal-lgpl:4.74b27'

    runtimeOnly "org.openjfx:javafx-controls:$javaFxVersion:win"
    runtimeOnly "org.openjfx:javafx-controls:$javaFxVersion:linux"
    runtimeOnly "org.openjfx:javafx-controls:$javaFxVersion:mac"
    runtimeOnly "org.openjfx:javafx-base:$javaFxVersion:win"
    runtimeOnly "org.openjfx:javafx-base:$javaFxVersion:linux"
    runtimeOnly "org.openjfx:javafx-base:$javaFxVersion:mac"
    runtimeOnly "org.openjfx:javafx-swing:$javaFxVersion:win"
    runtimeOnly "org.openjfx:javafx-swing:$javaFxVersion:linux"
    runtimeOnly "org.openjfx:javafx-swing:$javaFxVersion:mac"
}

javafx {
    version = javaFxVersion
    modules = [ 'javafx.controls', 'javafx.base', 'javafx.swing' ]
}
