Issue

The issue I am trying to resolve is being able to install Maven with JDK8 and not pull in another JDK. The maven-openjdk8 package has the following dependency chain: maven-openjdk8 -> maven -> maven-lib -> (java-headless or java-11-headless) However only java-11-openjdk-headless provides "java-headless", so this is only satisfied by JDK11. Hence, installing maven-openjdk8 (or maven-openjdk17) installs JDK11 as well. I'm filing this against openjdk because ultimately I think this can only be resolved by the OpenJDK packages providing a consistent virtual package name across JDK versions. The specific OpenJDK 8 package version I have reproduced this with is: Epoch : 1 Version : 1.8.0.322.b06 Release : 9.el9
