This is in 13.04 Raring. I was looking at the dependent packages that
are installed with the LibreOffice metapackage. Various references to
JRE (Java Runtime Environment) and Java.

John, how long ago was this? I can't give you a reference, but I don't
think LibreOffice 4 installs any type of Java at all. It's possible
this happened with much older versions and before Oracle changed some
legal stuff about Oracle which even caused Canonical to drop Oracle's
Java from the repos.

I forget if I asked this question some time back, but if I did, I
don't remember that the matter was settled.
I wanted to add LibreOffice to an installation for the sake of
better MS Office file compatibility and to gain a presentations
program, but it looks like LibreOffice will install Java. It
seems to me that this must open a security risk. But I recall
also doing some reading that indicated Java might be removed and
most common LibreOffice functions will work just fine (I think the
notable exception being the Base database).
Can someone clarify/amplify?
