@tom and @medmedin : To compile, gradle needs java version 11 (in fact, version 12, but only available in [AUR], version 11 is from [extra]). With version 14 of java, gradle (even in last version 6.5.1) crashes with your error «Could not initialize class org.codehaus.groovy...»

So, you must run, before compiling jexiftoolgui :

    archlinux-java status (to see which version of java is currently active on your system)
    sudo archlinux-java set java-11-openjdk

Then, you can compile jexiftoolgui. Gradle will work fine.

For execution of jexiftoolgui, you can use java 14

The build fails with the following error with OpenJDK14 :

I think gradle should be updated to 6.5 to support openjdk14.
