As since the 42.7.6 changelog the Community PostgreSQL JDBC driver is compiled against JDK21 by default,
https://jdbc.postgresql.org/changelogs/2025-05-28-42/
and the current sole dependency group for this RPM is "java-headless",
I would like to request the following dependency modifications to the RPM spec:
RHEL10 - "java-headless" OR "java-21-headless"
RHEL9
- "java-headless" OR "java-21-headless"
RHEL8
- "java-headless" OR "java-11-headless" OR "java-17-headless" OR "java-21-headless"
While RHEL 9 and 10 include up to JDK17 within the provides group "java-headless", RHEL8 only includes JDK8/1.8 as a version in the spec.
If this won't work, I would be curious to know why.
Additionally and separately,
JDBC version 42.7.8 has been out since 9/18, but the latest packages in the community repos are 42.7.7.
It isn't a security release.
Thanks,
