Description jiri vanek 2022-07-05 14:49:39 UTC 
Dear maintainer, we are going to drop i686 java packages in f37 - https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/Drop_i686_JDKs
your package (or maybe jsut some subpackage)  is directly depending on java and is native.

Please take care, and adapt  your package to exclude java on i686. For  your convenience, there was added macro %{java_arches}, including all arches java is available on,  which you can use to ifarch-out java specific features out in i686 (on non-java arches). Although for plain java package, the change is as simple as https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/maven/c/520942645bfd1e4721dacd536a6ccbf80495a8ae?branch=rawhide, you can not use it. The ExclusiveArch: %{java_arches} is not going to work for you, because your package is not simple java application, and also non-java world depends on it.

This is causing issue like:

DEBUG util.py:443:  Error: 
DEBUG util.py:443:   Problem: package R-devel-4.1.3-1.fc37.i686 requires R-java-devel = 4.1.3-1.fc37, but none of the providers can be installed
DEBUG util.py:443:    - conflicting requests
DEBUG util.py:443:    - nothing provides java-devel needed by R-java-devel-4.1.3-1.fc37.i686
