Public bug reported:

I believe the policytool was deprecated, so there is no longer an
alternative linked to /usr/bin/policytool for the .desktop file to use.

However, the desktop file is still installed to

/usr/share/applications/openjdk-11-policytool.desktop

This result in a invalid desktop entry in at least KDE Plasma's main
desktop menus, which produces the error that /usr/bin/policytool cannot
be found if a user tries to launch it.

** Affects: openjdk-lts (Ubuntu)
     Importance: Undecided
         Status: Confirmed
