I think you need to install 32-bit or 64-bit Java as appropriate to 
match LibreOffice. You can install both on a 64-bit system, so that both 
32-bit and 64-bit applications can use Java.

Wasn't there something a while back about LibreOffice on Mac not 
recognising Java 8 unless Java 7 was also installed, or something like 
that? I don't know if that's still the case; I don't have a Mac so 
haven't followed it closely. From what I recall I think it was a bug in 
Java, not something LibreOffice could do anything about.

Mark.
