Java Runtime Environment

Java Runtime Environment runs programs written in Java. Not to be confused with JavaScript.

Installation
Install the appropriate package, newer versions should be more secure:
jre-1.7u45-i586.sfs directory (October 2013) packaged by Shinobar, thread


Java JRE 1.7u25, 1.6u45 as pet or sfs thread packaged by TheAsterisk
jre-1.7-17.sfs thread packaged by TheZenKitteh
jre-1.7u10-i586.sfs download packaged by watchdog, post


Alternatively, use script to make package:
jre1.7.0_17 script post written by jpeps


Packages may also be available in the SlickPet/QuickPet app.

Version Check and Enabling
Verify the installed version via the command-line interface: 
java -version



Applications may need to be configured and re-started after J.R.E. installation, e.g.:
LibreOffice
Enable Java: Tools > Options > LibreOffice > Java
SeaMonkey
Enable Java: Edit > Preferences > Advanced > Enable Java
Firefox
Enable Java: Tools > Options > Content > Enable Java
Opera
Enable Java: Tools > Quick Preferences > Enable Plug-ins
Enable JavaScript: Tools > Quick Preferences > Enable JavaScript

Trouble shooting
Web browser configuration confirmation (JavaScript needs to be enabled within the Web browser): Test which version (if any) of Java is installed
