I also tried removing the existing recognized Oracle JDK17 aarch64 version beforehand to see whether it might be blocking recognition of the JDK18, but all that did on restart of LO was to bring up the dreaded "LibreOffice requires a JRE..." message, and JDK18 was still not recognized.

Current versions of LibreOffice 7.3.x recognize Adoptium/Temurin OpenJDK 18.0.1_10

that version is detected

Aarggh, the tar.gz file  does not provide functional Java binaries, rather archived debug symbols for those binaries, that is why LO couldn't recognize it.

If I download the PKG and install that instead, it is correctly recognized - my bad, and apologies to all.
