I see that jre10-openjdk does indeed only replace, but not conflict with
jre9-openjdk, so I guess there should be no harm in installing both (but
I have not tested it, so expect things to break):
1. Build and install remakepkg from the AUR
2. Write the following REPKGBUILD file:
repkg extra/jre10-openjdk
remove-replace jre9-openjdk
3. Run `remakepkg`
Then again, this is just an alternative to just fetching Arch's
PKGBUILD file for jre10-openjdk, editing it, and building the full
package yourself.
