No they won't, because only the subversion-hljava subpackage depends
on java, so packages that have Requires:subversion or BR:subversion
are not affected at all by removing subversion-hljava on i686.

A HEADS UP email to this list makes people aware. Dozens of bugs that
will be closed without action is not helpful though.

Because it's obvious from looking at the subversion.spec that the main
'subversion' RPM is not affected in any way by the Java changes.

But depending on subversion is the wrong check, because subversion
doesn't depend on Java, only subversion-hljava does.
