OSX 10.8 "Mountain Lion" prompts to install Java 6 when installing QZ Tray. When the user clicks "Yes", it prevents QZ Tray from ever running as upgrading to Java 7 does not fix the issue.

One temporary fix seems to be installing Oracle JDK 8, which seems to update the java path properly so that java -version yields Java 8, not Java 6.

Per d0e65f4, we've added the Apple recommended method for checking minimum Java version via: /usr/libexec/java_home -v 1.7+. This should prevent the auto-install of JRE6 during install time and also allow the software to be launched with Java 7 in a mixed environment (such as when multiple JVMs are installed). Testing needed on a fresh Mac OS Install.

Should be fixed via 1b4074b.

This fix is staged for QZ Tray 1.9.1.
