"No metadata found for version corretto-21" using the java installer

[dkowis]

Describe the bug I keep my java version only at the latest major, so that it will automatically pull in and install the various patch levels. so the version for java is corretto-21

To Reproduce mise install java@corretto-21

Expected behavior mise would go get and install the latest java corretto-21.0.whatever

❯ mise ls-remote java | grep corretto-21
corretto-21.0.0.34.1
corretto-21.0.0.35.1
corretto-21.0.1.12.1
corretto-21.0.2.13.1
corretto-21.0.3.9.1

1. unused shims are present, run mise reshim to remove them

Additional context I suspect this is a regression, as it worked up until today, at the latest version of mise v2024.4.9 that I just installed via cargo

Most likely caused by #1957 which tightens the fuzzy matching to prevent installing the newest version for e.g. openjdk-21, oracle-21, sapmachine-21 etc. These distributions have major versions without minor/patch version numbers and could therefore not be installed reliably. Especially if you want a x.0.0 version or you need to switch between x.0.0 and x.0.x versions.

To have always the newest version of a distribution installed i suggest to use the prefix: scope. For example mise use java@prefix:corretto-21.

@jdx #1887 should be re-opened in case of revert. We could adapt the fix #1957 to apply only for certain distributions liberica, liberica-lite, openjdk, oracle, oracle-graalvm and sapmachine. This would fix both issues but keep the inconsistencies, corretto-21 installs newest while openjdk-21 does not. On the other hand there will be no way to install openjdk-21(.0.0) otherwise.

[jdx]

yeah I think the best solution is to special-case these. Thankfully new java distros don't pop up super frequently

[roele]

Okey, will have another look at that tomorrow.
