Re: [libreoffice-users] Set JRE in LibreOffice

I keep seeing this fallacy of "only Base requires Java" repeated in this 
forum and so this is to keep the record straight. This may not be true, 
unless LO has changed in this area from 5.2.7. I can no longer test it. 
From my experience back in July of 2017, some of the configs in Tools > 
Options also seem to need Java. When I was having problems with LO Base 
crashing after a Linux Kernel security update which turned out to affect 
Java, I tried to use a tools config or two and some crashed the same way 
- implying they also used Java. IIRC, it was when I clicked on Internet 
> MediaWiki. So there may be other areas of LO in addition to Base that 
seem to use Java.

I remember a while back, LO was making an effort to remove Java 
requirements. Some progress to that end has been made over the years, 
but I suspect there are still some threads connecting LO to Java, 
besides Base.
