jwe mentioned today that he is going to be looking at this issue. I'm going to close this bug report and leave #40111 open.

I was not aware of the issue. Is there another bug reported for it with more discussion? Is this a duplicate?

This is a long term issue. There really should be a runtime check for an available jvm, rather than a build-time check. It's on the long term list of TODOS.

See https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew-science/pull/2051 for discussion of the bug

homebrew developer Xu Cheng claims that this is an Octave bug. However, it seems to me he didn't ever tried to install Octave and it was based on information by one of their users "spundun".

I was trying to do install Octave in a Mac system last month and did have issues linking with the correct java. Not being aware of the issue at the time, I didn't dig deep into it. I will take a while until I get another go at a Mac.
