RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.
Description of problem:
javassist package lays in Optional repository on ppc64 and s390x. It has unresolved dependency on these architectures:
package: javassist-3.9.0-6.el6.noarch from Optional
unresolved deps:
java >= 1:1.6.0
It does not seem to be big issue and probably not a bug at all. IBM implementation of java is available via Supplementary media and javassist is installable when supplementary repo is added. I successfully installed javassist with java-*-ibm, however I didn't test if it is working properly with this implementation of java.
This is bugreport for clarification whether this situation is expected/acceptable.
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
javassist-3.9.0-6.el6

Indeed, javassist in optional for usage as Eclipse dependency. It's not otherwise supported. There will definitely be more noarch packages with the same unresolvable requires in Eclipse dependency chain.
Closing this as notabug
