How can I brew upgrade git if I can't get past this javac prompt?

I'm running into some odd issues with git today, so I thought I'd reinstall (or upgrade) it. Install and upgrade run into the same issue.

When I run java --version it says I have OpenJDK installed. OK, that works. But when I run brew install git (or brew upgrade git) I run into this command prompt about javac. When I hit "OK" nothing happens.

I have a JDK installed, so why does the OS think I don't? Is there some trick to getting the OS to recognize the JDK?

The full command line that is hitting this OpenJDK issue is ==> ./configure --prefix=//Users/justin.collum/homebrew/Cellar/gettext/0.21 --with-included-glib --with-included-libcroco --with-included-libunistring --with-included-libxml --with-emacs --with-l

Clicking on the "More Info" link takes me to a page that tells me that Adobe Flash player page that says "We have retired Flash", so that's worthless.

Clicking on "OK" just doesn't do anything. I've waited a few minutes and there's no output on the screen.

Solution 1:

This is apparently just a misfire message. I had the javac app installed already:

$  which javac
//Users/justin.collum/homebrew/opt/openjdk/bin/javac

I just pressed OK and (even though it didn't give me any indication that it was doing so) it compiled and installed fine after a long time with no screen output. Leaving this up in case it helps someone in the future.
