Research direction

Start by locating the oraclejdk and oraclejdk-lts manifests in this Scoop Java bucket and review how their names are represented. Rename them to oraclejdk-25 and oraclejdk-21, then verify that the manifests and bucket references use the proposed names.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

JDK 25 is the latest Long-Term Support (LTS) release of the Java SE Platform.
JDK 21 is the previous Long-Term Support (LTS) release of the Java SE Platform.

Scoop bucket contains oraclejdk (25) and oraclejdk-lts (21), which raises two problems:

  • User may mistakenly assume JDK 25 is not an LTS release;
  • Oraclejdk (25) manifest will automatically upgrade to JDK 26 when available.

Proposal: Rename them to oraclejdk-25 and oraclejdk-21.
