Follow-up Comment #2, bug #38593 (project octave):

No, the problem is not with the installation location. It does find a valid
JDK using PATH. The problem is the version check that is done regardless of
specifying JAVA_HOME or not:

http://hg.savannah.gnu.org/hgweb/octave/file/7ce21619a4b9/configure.ac#l2386

The current check requires a line to start with "java version" but I'm seeing
"openjdk version" on NixOS for some reason. I have never seen this variant
before, but apparently there is a way to configure OpenJDK to identify itself
this way.
