Hi, I will like to make a request to the NB development team. Give users the
option of down loading NB IDE minus the Java SDK. I saw NB 31 coming with JDK
26, but I still want to keep Java 25 LTS.

you could try to leave one side of the split package on the cp and only
depend on the other side. Be ready to do that several times since this
is not going to be the only split package most likely.
(I never used java modules in NB applications so I don't know if there
would be followup issues additionally to split packages - you would
essentially run two module systems)
you can also patch one java module into another module, making them one
module - this would merge split packages. Depend on one module and the
other becomes "--patch-module <first module>=<path>". (Again, i never
tried that, if this overwrites NB specific module config this will
become a problem)
not saying you should do any of that, you could also stick to cp which
is known to work.
