They all have Java support except for hppa, see:

The reason for being BD-Uninstallable is the lack of cruft in Debian Ports:
https://lists.debian.org/debian-sparc/2017/12/msg00060.html
as a result of some packages FTBFS. So, it's more a Debian Ports problem than an architecture problem. Also, both alpha and ia64 are BD-Uninstallable because you don't want to drop clang from Build-Depends from these architectures for whatever reason despite these not having had a LLVM/clang port for several years:
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=963109
If clang could be dropped from Build-Depends for alpha and ia64, that would already help us move a little further.
speak up at upstream or they will be gone. And without those bridges no architecture support for it.
I will see what I can do. Thanks, Adrian -- .''`. John Paul Adrian Glaubitz : :' : Debian Developer `. `' Physicist `- GPG: 62FF 8A75 84E0 2956 9546 0006 7426 3B37 F5B5 F913
