The question is: should we just excludearch it in EPEL packages, or
should we find someone willing and able to maintain it in EPEL and
build the exact same version as RHEL ships for ppc64.
I think it would be wonderful if we could provide it but will say 1
thing: Beware, bootstrapping Java is a non-trivial process. Last
time I tried it had circular dependencies which had to be manually
broken by tweaking the spec files, and it's not a small dependency
chain...
