            Bug ID: 135462
           Summary: LibreOffice 7.0.0.3 does not recognise JRE at startup
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 7.0.0.3 release
          Hardware: x86-64 (AMD64)
                OS: Mac OS X (All)
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: LibreOffice
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: war at rsb.at

Description:
During startup, LO 7.0.0.3 requires a JRE but does not find it.
It cannot be pointed to the correct location of the JRE either (because the
Add-Dialog does not allow for general directory searches)

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Install LO 7.0.0.3
2.Start LO
3.Try to install JRE manually

=> Java is installed on the machine (using Homebrew installation, located in
/usr/bin)

Actual Results:
JRE is neither recognised (hard coded pointer to ~/Library/Java/... which does
not exist) nor can be added (due to dialog that does not allow to enter path
manually)

Expected Results:
Either automatic detection of Java or possibility to add path oneself.


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: No



Additional Info:
This breaks extensions as they cannot be activated (java wrapper missing)

Reverting to 6.5.x makes JRE and extensions working again
