Question:
I’m pretty new to Linux and I need to install openjdk 1.8.0_20-b26 (that specific version) on a machine in AWS.
I’ll appreciate if you could give some tips because it seems like using yum always install the latest one and trying to use --showduplicatesyields nothing.
I’ll appreciate your help.
Answer:
Open JDK
Review the available JDK from your repo
