Jenkins weekly 2.463 dropped support for Java 11. Jenkins LTS 2.479.1 will drop support for Java 11 when it releases 30 Oct 2024. The Jenkins security team only provides security fixes for the most recent weekly release and the most recent LTS release. That means there will be no security updates for Jenkins LTS versions prior to 2.479.1 once it is released 30 Oct 2024. Jenkins agents require a JDK that has the same major version as the controller or a greater JDK major version than the controller JVM. After 30 Oct 2024, there will be no supported configuration where Java 11 agents run. This change removes the Java 11 build and update process. We can wait until 30 Oct 2024 to merge this change if needed, but there is not much reason to wait beyond 30 Oct 2024 for that merge.
