Hello,

as a Java developer, I sometimes need to do compatibility checking using
older versions, often using JRE, while I need a JDK for development.

When I tried to update arch linux now, I found I cannot start any update
because the update is blocked by setting JRE and JDK as conflicting
packages. I tried to only install JDK 21, but the update is still being
blocked because of my older versions of the JRE.

Why do You block any software installation? I don't like the idea to
enforce me to use any specific software, or to remove any specific one.
Is there any possibility to remove the lock-in?

Kind regards,
Peter
