In my case these days, I have two things I would do to take a poke at
this in hopes something obvious presents itself:
$ apt-cache policy openjdk-9
I might even try the much busier "apt-cache policy openjdk-*" to see if anything else is lingering. My setup throws an "unable to locate
package" advisement for 9.
The second thing that I would try is:
$ apt-get autoremove -s openjdk-9
Rationale there is to see if it's still an active dependency that tries
to also remove other important packages or if it's just an oddly
dangling residual. My current JRE 21 wanted to take some pieces of libreoffice with it when I "-s" symbolically autoemoved my installed JRE package.
i don't have any openjdk-9 at all.
i do have 17, 18 and 21... i also have another jdk that some
other software requires but it is put into its own place and
environment variables are set that point at it. all works as it
should (it is also a jdk-17 variant and has nothing to do with
9).
I have an oddly dangling package that YOU just helped me FINALLY solve: linux-image/linux-headers and friends for 6.9.10 also on a Trixie
partition that's a couple years old.
:)
glad to be of help even indirectly. :)
i always make sure my system boots and doesn't give any
obvious errors before removing the 3rd one back. i also
have links to the current and previous version that get
updated when the new kernel is installed. it all just
works as it should as long as someone doesn't break it...
