This is not an answer to your question, but if the above is exactly as
is from the mail you received, something needs a fix: the dependency is
"java >= 1:1.6.0", not "java>= 1:1.6.0".

$ rpm -qRp
http://kojipkgs.fedoraproject.org/packages/clapham/0.1.003/4.el6/noarch/clapham-0.1.003-4.el6.noarch.rpm
| grep java
java >= 1:1.6.0

Although I used cut-and-paste to copy the error message into the email I
sent, it somehow got munged. The necessary space between "java" and
">=" was present.

Thanks!

A search reveals that Matthias Saou ran into this problem in 2007:

http://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-maintainers/2007-May/msg00738.html
It was recommended that a ticket be opened against koji, but I can't
find any evidence that it was done, so I've just created one:
https://fedorahosted.org/koji/ticket/210

For now, I guess I'll just have to put a long list of ExcludeArch in the
spec.

Thanks!
Eric
