That sounds as if your *system* is damaged; when Installer starts up, the run-time linker is trying to load a library at run time, but the library isn't on your system.

On my macOS Sierra system, Installer does refer to that library:

	$ otool -L /System/Library/CoreServices/Installer.app/Contents/MacOS/Installer | egrep Java
	        /System/Library/PrivateFrameworks/JavaLaunching.framework/Versions/A/JavaLaunching (compatibility version 1.0.0, current version 1.0.0)

and that file exists on my system:

	$ file /System/Library/PrivateFrameworks/JavaLaunching.framework/Versions/A/JavaLaunching
	/System/Library/PrivateFrameworks/JavaLaunching.framework/Versions/A/JavaLaunching: Mach-O universal binary with 2 architectures: [i386: Mach-O i386 dynamically linked shared library] [x86_64: Mach-O 64-bit x86_64 dynamically linked shared library]
