> I have a 3rd party app that use a Java GUI, so it won't run on a headless JVM.  I had it working until I installed a different app using dnf.  It overwrote my JVM with a headless one and now the Java GUI app is broken.  Is there a way to install/register a non-headless JVM with Fedora so it won't keep installing the headless JVM?


The headless package (java-1.8.0-openjdk-headless) is a standalone
package intended to be used on headless servers where the user may not
want graphics related libraries installed. 

The headless package is just a subpackage of the main OpenJDK build and
all it is is the full JRE minus some graphics related shared libraries
(which are then provided by the 'java-1.8.0-openjdk' package).

If you are using GUI apps, you just need to install 'java-1.8.0-openjdk'
and you will be able to run GUI apps. Apps distributed via Fedora should
have the proper dependencies (on headless vs full package); if you
notice that once does not, please open a bug against that package.

Cheers,
Deepak
