Oops - thanks for setting me straight about "wishlist". As noted above, I saw this on a fresh install of the final 12.04 precise iso for amd64. So in effect I followed the advice at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LibreOffice to use the default install. But that page doesn't deal with the issues around Java and missing features at all. It probably should, and if so, perhaps that is where the warning message should point.
But please change this bug from "Won't Fix" to at least "Confirmed". -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to libreoffice in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/926594 Title: LibreOffice warning gives wrong advice: "javaldx: Could not find a Java Runtime Environment!"
