Would I have only the set from 2) with 1) removed? I think you would only have the set from 2. Parallel installation can't be done via streams, so it must be done at the module level. So you'd have jdk8 and jdk11 modules, each with a default stream. Given the default is specified, an installation would look something like: "dnf module install jdk8; dnf module install jdk11" josh _______________________________________________ devel mailing list -- devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to devel-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Fedora Code of Conduct: https://getfedora.org/code-of-conduct.html List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/message/GOP2JOA6SE7YG4K3JV75VKT537ZZRP3Y/
