From my point of view this will be a good first issue once the blog post is online (https://github.com/AdoptOpenJDK/blog/issues/498). Otherwise it will be quite hard to understand for a newcomer. @aahlenst can you ping me once the post is online. I will transform this issue in a "good first issue" afterwards.

Hi, since 11.0.10 the Freetype library is not bundled anymore and I doubt that the relicensed Lucida fonts will be shipped in the future. Instead it should be noted that Freetype and FontConfig are required to successfully run Eclipse Adoptium. Maybe link to the according blog post https://blog.adoptopenjdk.net/2021/01/prerequisites-for-font-support-in-adoptopenjdk/.
