Elliotte Rusty Harold commented on MNG-7010:
--------------------------------------------
Yes, that makes sense. Speciifcally:
1. Warn "The JAVA_HOME environment variable is not defined correctly
This environment variable is needed to run this program." when the JAVA_HOME
environment variable is not defined correctly.
2. Drop "NB" completely. It's very obscure.
3. If and only if the problem is that JAVA_HOME should points to a JRE instead
of a JDK, then also add, "JAVA_HOME should point to a JDK, not a JRE."
> omit "NB: JAVA_HOME should point to a JDK not a JRE" except when that is the
> problem.

> fair enough. My JAVA_HOME is broken, for reasons. However the problem is
> **not** that it points to a JDK instead of a JRE. Maven should omit "NB:
> JAVA_HOME should point to a JDK not a JRE" except when that is the problem.
> Also, I have no idea what NB means here. Nota bene perhaps?
