The headless and GUI enabled JVM package are not independent JVMs. The GUI enabled JVM package just supplies some additional .so files; the same JVM bits are used underneath. The only way (I can see) it would revert back to headless is: 1. A bug in the JVM itself where GUI libraries are installed but it is not seeing/loading them (we have never seen this before though) 2. A bug in dnf where it uninstalled the GUI enabled package due to some weird conflict Are you able to reproduce this issue, or do you still have access to the system where the problem is happening?
