I really can't understand this, unless he is following some strange path
on the site. On http://download.openoffice.org/other.html you can
uncheck "Include the Java JRE with this download" and get the version
without JRE (even when it doesn't exist on mirrors, like for Italian,
but this is a separate issue!).

And you needn't actually install the JRE if you download a "with JRE"
package: you can uncheck it if you choose the custom/advanced
installation option.

For my other thoughts on this, including the reasons why I'm in favour
of only distributing properly packaged (not the current ones) with-JRE
builds, see
