Yes, this is a bit odd. I thought we had the issues with the changes to /usr/libexec/java_home worked out. Frustrating. I wish I was less busy when this was being worked on for 12.2 as I would have tested it more thoroughly, especially since I was one complaining about it. I did successfully run the NB installer, but I'm guessing now that my environment wasn't sanitized properly before I did that.
In any case, setting global environment variables on macOS is a bit of a pain. It doesn't work at all for the path for example (apparently that is considered a security risk). I do use a utility added to my system preferences that allows configuring of global environment variables. That is where I set JAVA_HOME so it is at least set to something valid for GUI apps. But Like Geerjan says, I always configure it explicitly in my netbeans.conf file as well. We will just have to give that macOS installer experience more attention before the next release.
