Hi :)
It doesn't require java except under certain usage conditions.  You can install LO with Base and 
just switch off any hint of it needing Java.  

It's the built-in back-end that does use java and some of the wizards.  So, steer clear of wizards 
and you'll be fine.  
Regards from 
Tom :)

You could do the default install and not ever use Base. (I do not use
the Math component even though I have it installed.) If size of the
install is a problem, the custom install uses about 5 MiB less than the
default install. LibreOffice is a single integrated program with a core
section (most of the installation) and the individual components
(Writer, Calc, Base, Draw, Impress, etc.) which each add 5-10 MiB of
installed files. All of the components share the core section. They even
use some of the files from other components. For example, Base forms and
reports use Writer files to create or modify them. Impress uses Draw and
Writer functions .

Thanks for the replies, to you and Tom Davies.

Yes, I'm using Windows, version 8 Pro 64bit.

I prefer not to install Base, because I read that it requires Java, and 
I don't trust much Java, since there seem to be a lot of security issues 
appearing.

Can you confirm that Base requires Java, which will be automatically 
installed during LibreOffice's installation?
Thanks.

Thomas
