What is the output of `archlinux-java status`?

$ archlinux-java status
Available Java environments:
java-7-openjdk (default)

I get this message when I uninstall jdk7-openjdk or when I only set "jre-7-openjdk/jre" as default.

What do the following say?
echo $JAVA_HOME
ls -ahl /usr/lib/jvm/
pacman -Qs java-environment
