Follow-up Comment #2, bug #48187 (project octave):

Just for completeness, the current message shown by the installer is:


Octave includes a Java integration component, but it seems Java is not
available on this system. This component requires the Java Runtime Environment
from Oracle (http://www.java.com) installed on your system. Octave can work
without Java available, but the Java integration component will not be
functional. Installing those components without Java available might prevent
Octave from working correctly. Proceed with installation anyway?


Very wordy.


And it also shows the exclamation ! icon on the dialog - perhaps reword and
change the message type to informational ?

Any preference from on what it should say?
