Java 21 images missing

[bmarwell]

Hi,

except for UBI, there are no Java 21 images.
Can you please provide Java 21 non-UBI images?

Thanks :)

Ah, icr.io. Sorry.

[bmarwell]

Sorry again, https://hub.docker.com/_/open-liberty should contain ubuntu images with Java 21+. ICR only contains UBI images, so that would be no help to my use case.

@bmarwell RHEL/UBI is our recommended and strategic OS and we don't have a plan to add Liberty images with newer Java versions (including Java 21) on Ubuntu. Could you please consider using the UBI-based image with Liberty + Java 21 from icr.io (listed here)?

No need to CC Alasdair, private matter here. 😊 I just wanted to combine a liberty app with Microsoft Playwright, which needs a browser. That's just easier on Ubuntu.

But then, I can just add liberty to the MS Playwright image. "Just"... Not that easy, though, but not a blocker.

We can close this issue, if you agree.
