However, it might well be that temurin-17.jdk isn't recognized.

I would love for this to be possible, but the whole sorry Java recognition business has been a long standing debacle due to the fact that Apple and Oracle fell out, and the LO project has been trying to play keep up for functionality that it has wanted to make entirely optional and not yet succeeded without losing key functionality, well, because people actually still use Java on a day-to-day basis with their office productivity suite. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
