 @053f521c sometimes you only need the runtime (JRE), and not the development kit. If you know an app was built with one version of the JDK, then you have to use that same version of the JRE. Most of the time Java is backwards compatible, but it is best to use the same version of the runtime the development kit was used. 
 A little #retrogaming this week while on vacation.

 @053f521c technically OpenJDK is different than Oracle JDK. 

OpenJDK is the open source version of the Java proprietary software that is developed by Oracle. 

Operationally they function the same. It is nice you can easily switch as Java items usually have the proper forwards/backwards compatibility, but is usually best to match the JDK and JRE versions.

 @53c578bc Could a queue system work? Disable the account, put it in a queue for X days, then process the full removal? 
 After getting my laptop reinstalled, I needed to Migrate my GPG keys to a new machine. Only done this once and thought I should write it down for myself and others.

 @053f521c Thanks! On a fresh install and v16 is installed. Found a post too that this is their LTS that comes installed by default. So might need to add the source repository for the current LTS of 18. 
 @053f521c This is what I'm seeing when installing.

I found an article on how to Install Node.js using NodeSource RPM, and I think this is how I did it last time. 
 Does #fedora 38 only support #NodeJS version 16? I'm needing to install version 18, but even with 'dnf module list nodejs' only 16 shows up.

I was able to get it installed! Had to uninstall, reset node module then run the new process: https://github.com/nodesource/distributions#enterprise-linux-based-distributions 
 @053f521c sounds like a nice surprise! Glad you had a great visit and upgrades are fun too. Enjoy the new upgrades!

 @053f521c @6f55db33 Alpine Linux for Docker images for the win. They are simple, lightweight and easy to work with. I hadn't tried it really as a full time OS yet though outside of Docker.
