Bug Description
By default the new jre will be downloaded.
However, this user space download is well suited for Windows OSes which doesn't have a well designed update system ;) .
With a Linux distro like Ubuntu, the software repository update will trigger the update of the Linux box with the latest JRE.
In order to spare resources (CPU, mem, disk, energy, ...) I think the download of the JRE should be disabled by default in user space.
See the screenshot of the default settings in the Plugin Control Panel.
