Bug Fix(es):
- Installing the same java-17-openjdk-headless package on two different systems resulted in distinct classes.jsa files getting generated. This was because the CDS archive was being generated by a post script action of the java-17-openjdk-headless package. This prevented the use of the dynamic dump feature, as the checksum in the archive would be different on each system. This is resolved in this release by using the .jsa files generated during the initial build. (RHBZ#2221655)
- Prepare for the next quarterly OpenJDK upstream release (2023-07, 17.0.8) [almalinux-8] (BZ#2222368)
