WebKitGTK can no longer work on big-endian architectures as a result of an
upstream move from Cairo to Skia, as announced in
<https://lists.debian.org/debian-devel/2026/09/msg00139.html> and #1148038.

This package depends on swt4-gtk, which could in principle have only its
WebKitGTK-dependent binary package removed from s390x (#1148244) but
there doesn't appear to have been any progress towards this. As a result
I'm now suggesting that the packages that depend on swt4-gtk are removed
from s390x; this would temporarily reduce the range of available GUI
packages on s390x, but they can come back in the next upload if #1148244
is fixed, and s390x mainframes are not really a platform where it makes
sense to run GUIs anyway.

Removing openjfx would make some Architecture: all packages unbuildable
on s390x, but that seems relatively harmless.

We believe that the bug you reported is now fixed; the following
package(s) have been removed from unstable:

libopenjfx-jni | 21.0.12+3-3 | s390x
   openjfx | 21.0.12+3-3 | s390x

------------------- Reason -------------------
RoQA; indirectly depends on webkit2gtk which no longer supports big-endian
----------------------------------------------

Note that the package(s) have simply been removed from the tag
database and may (or may not) still be in the pool; this is not a bug.
The package(s) will be physically removed automatically when no suite
references them (and in the case of source, when no binary references
it).  Please also remember that the changes have been done on the
master archive and will not propagate to any mirrors until the next
dinstall run at the earliest.

Packages are usually not removed from testing by hand. Testing tracks
unstable and will automatically remove packages which were removed
from unstable when removing them from testing causes no dependency
problems. The release team can force a removal from testing if it is
really needed, please contact them if this should be the case.

Bugs which have been reported against this package are not automatically
removed from the Bug Tracking System.  Please check all open bugs and
close them or re-assign them to another package if the removed package
was superseded by another one.

The version of this package that was in Debian prior to this removal
can still be found using https://snapshot.debian.org/.

Thank you for reporting the bug, which will now be closed.  If you
have further comments please address them to 1149633@bugs.debian.org.
