Yes, you might have missing libraries that are not installed that should be installed. Also, Mark Java for re-installation if its already installed, like I said, can't hurt.

Do you still have the Software Center open? Only one package manager can operate at a time. Make sure you close Software Center, or if your using terminal, close the window, then try Synaptic again. If your still having issues, its beyond my current level of Linux knowledge.

Option One:
Easy solution
Remove it:
sudo apt remove oracle-java11-installer-local
Option Two
Complex solution: place the proper files in the proper places:
sudo mv jdk-11.0.5_linux-x64_bin.tar.gz /var/cache/oracle-jdk11-installer-local/
sudo rm /var/lib/dpkg/info/oracle-java11-installer-local.postinst
sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade

Close Synaptic. Close Software Store. Close Terminal.
Then open a new terminal and run:
sudo apt remove oracle-java11-installer-local
Close terminal when done.
Reboot.
Open Software Store and test.

You may have downloaded a different package or installed java 11 in a different way. I guessed.
Try Option One.

Yeah, I had mentioned that to him in post number 8. But if he's still having trouble after shutting those down, then maybe he should restart his computer.

In synaptic, with software updater and terminal closed, did you check the broken packages item on the left near the bottom?
If there is nothing there, removing and reinstalling java 11 will most likely fix your issue. Do this from the terminal with synaptic closed.
