According to Koji, Java is indeed still built in a 32bit version, https://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=1241271 >Fedora also packages nvidia-smi with CUDA libraries and that's wrong >too.

Fedora doesn't package nvidia-smi - the binary Nvidia driver is not allowed in Fedora. If you have issues with how it is packaged then take it up with the 3rd party providers who have packaged it. But before you do so I suggest you take a look at the packaging guidelines to see if there might actually be a valid reason for the way things are done... https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/packaging-guidelines/ >Because the JRE is derived from the JDK but there are use cases where >just having a JRE standalone is of benefit.

What Oracle does or doesn't do isn't relevant, as Fedora is packaging OpenJDK from sources, and has done so from the beginning of OpenJDK. >This specific problem(which branched out of the alternatives one) here >isn't with alternatives but with which the JRE and JDK are separated at >the package level.

Is there an alternative >for Silverblue? If you spent some time learning Fedora, and how Fedora packages things, or asked questions, you would learn/know that Fedora separates out everything into a runtime package and a devel package. Or alternatively explore koji.fedoraproject.org and see what packages are created for each source rpm. As for Silverblue, as mentioned it's a work in progress (and like any open source project likely welcoming of assistance if that intersts you). _______________________________________________ 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
