Can't install icedtea-plugin

[eagle]

On Ubuntu I am used to to installing

icedtea-plugin

to be able to run jnlp files. When trying to install icedtea-plugin on MX Linux apt says there is no installation candidate and suggest that I instead install

icedtea-netx-common

I tried this - but after installation Firefox will still not open jnlp files.

Thanks for all help!

After installing the icedtea packages using MX installer, I downloaded the .jnlp file and ran the following command from the terminal.

javaws --jnlp somefile.jnlp
