I would, but such a line does not exist. The only Require-Bundle line
has org.apache.xerces
Further, I am assuming that the script driving these deps is
/usr/lib/rpm/osgideps.pl , and I get this:
$ echo /usr/share/java/xalan-j2.jar | /usr/lib/rpm/osgideps.pl --requires
osgi(org.apache.xerces)
so I don't really understand where the system.bundle requirement is coming from.

Just remove the system.bundle from Require-Bundle tag in the
META-INF/MANIFEST.MF file in the jar.
