I'm not aware of a RHEL clone that offers all the architectures that
EPEL does.  As far as I can tell, the three most popular (Alma, Rocky,
Oracle) only offer x86_64 and aarch64 but are missing ppc64le and
s390x.  That said CentOS Linux 8 doesn't offer s390x either, so we
already have this problem, but switch the EPEL mock chroot to one of
those clones would make the situation worse by also dropping ppc64le.
