Winget EclipseAdoptium.Temurin.8.JRE

[cstett]

My organization wants to auto update EclipseAdoptium.Temurin.8.JRE through winget but version 8.0.412.8 has not been published to winget yet. Does the Winget versions typically lag far behind? Are there better ways to manage updates?

Thank you kindly,

Can confirm this is a bug, _402 is the latest available via Winget. You can manually install the package via a .zip or .msi from Adoptium.net

Big thank you for confirming this! Do you think this will be fixed in later releases?

I'm chasing it down (but please do bug me in a week or so if I don't come back :-))

Hello! I wanted to check in to see what you have found. Thank you :)

The config files are here: https://github.com/microsoft/winget-pkgs/tree/master/manifests/e/EclipseAdoptium/Temurin/8

Looks like someone upgraded the JDK but not the JRE (I'll handle it now)

Noting that it's the same for all versions, I'll get this sorted. We should perhaps consider some automation to the winget repo to ensure these stay up-to-date.

I've raised microsoft/winget-pkgs#160047

Noting that I used the following command:

komac update EclipseAdoptium.Temurin.8.JRE --version 8.0.412.8 --urls https://github.com/adoptium/temurin8-binaries/releases/download/jdk8u412-b08/OpenJDK8U-jre_x64_windows_hotspot_8u412b08.msi https://github.com/adoptium/temurin8-binaries/releases/download/jdk8u412-b08/OpenJDK8U-jre_x32_windows_hotspot_8u412b08.msi --submit

Have we just manually submitted in the past or did a Winget enthusiast pull from us?

AFAIK we (Adoptium) have never been responsible for the updates, the community have kindly done it for us

Ah OK, I do wonder if we need to take it off our docs / website in that case

+1 ... Or as a minimum make it absolutely clear on there that it's not an Adoptium-maintained distribution mechanism.
