Hello, we surely don't need all these OpenJDK releases in 24.04 LTS. We
should figure out which ones are worth keeping and which ones are worth
removing.

$ gzip -cd /srv/mirror/ubuntu/dists/noble/*/source/Sources.gz | grep '^Package: openjdk' | sort -n
Package: openjdk-11-jre-dcevm
Package: openjdk-17
Package: openjdk-19
Package: openjdk-20
Package: openjdk-21
Package: openjdk-22
Package: openjdk-8
Package: openjdk-lts

(I've not included openjdk-lts in the list on the assumption that we
want to keep that one. If that's a wrong assumption, please do whatever
needs doing.)

Thanks
