I see, thanks.

At the moment, kubernetes is not at all shipped in Ubuntu as a source
package, nor as a .deb package.
The problem is that currently kubernetes is fast moving project, not
currently using newish golang shared libraries and in practice one
wants to deploy and manage clusters of homogenious versions.
Therefore at the moment juju charm is one of the supported kubernetes
deployment methods, using upstream images/binaries. Which allows to
deploy any currently upstream supported images, on the supported charm
series.
Thus kubernetes is not at the moment at all planned to enter the
ubuntu archive as .dsc / .deb, on any architecture.

The best course of action imho is for relevant IBM engineers to engage
with upstream and start regularly releasing images for "ports"
architectures, e.g. ppc64el & s390x. Such that those images can be
used on any Linux on z.

I'll reassign this bug from Ubuntu project (packages) to Juju charms
project.
