Yeah, I agree. But in any case, is the dependency check relevant? It's just expecting a Java higher than 8 which should be covered by the JVM version check in the startup script, right?

[DISCUSS] CASSANDRA-17669 - CentOS/RHEL installation requires JRE not available in Java 11

Package installations on CentOS/RHEL require JRE 1.8+ so on systems where only Java 11 is installed, either (a) Java 8 is installed as a dependency, or (b) the dependency check fails. I haven't seen any tickets or previous discussions on this issue so here it is -- since JRE is no longer available
