Error whiel trying to launch runelite from bolt-launcher

I am new to Eos and have run into an issue while trying to launch runelite from bolt-launcher. And i have sort of found the solution to the problem but don’t understand what i am supposed to do.

So while launching i get this: Game launch status: ‘Couldn’t find Java: JAVA_HOME is either unset or does not point to a Java binary, and no binary named “java” exists in PATH.’

the issue and solution are found here:

below is what can be found on github.
JAVA_HOME

Another launch issue you may see in the console.
This is solved by setting the JAVA_HOME environment variable.
This is usually located in /usr/lib/jvm, so, it might look like this:
export JAVA_HOME="/usr/lib/jvm/java-17-openjdk-17.0.9.0.9-3.fc39.x86_64"

If someone can help me understand what to do here i would be thankful.

Do you have java installed?

well this is embarrassing, but apparently not. I thought the needed java components would be included in the bolt-launcher.
So i am assuming i would need to install java-17-openjdk-17 ?

You probably want jre17-openjdk

well i feel like a fool that the solution was this simple. but thank you very much for your help!
Much appreciated
