Description Libor Fischmeistr 2013-08-28 09:23:39 UTC 
All launchers, Win + Unix, does not require 1.7 to run. The 1.6 is enough.
Comment 1 Jiri Rechtacek 2013-08-29 16:18:49 UTC 
These fixes might make is better:
http://hg.netbeans.org/core-main/rev/ac06b2f0515d (wording in warning message)
http://hg.netbeans.org/core-main/rev/3052aa747443 (missing " in path)
http://hg.netbeans.org/core-main/rev/b4069468cfc6 (JDK 1.7 a minimum for launching installer - a tricky fix :))
Comment 2 Libor Fischmeistr 2013-08-30 12:09:39 UTC 
Fix for MacOS: http://hg.netbeans.org/core-main/rev/4be0e80385a7
