Thanks for reporting this, it is definitely not expected - non-SCL-ized
package javapackages-tools should not be included in RHSCL channels.
I'll investigate why it is tagged in brew [1] and whether we can have it
removed from the next release.

I don't know, I don't have access either. Bug I guess these could be
RHSCL packages.

Oh yes :) And it still required using pre-built binaries from older
releases or products.

Java collections were typically bootstrapped by using older packages
from other collections or from RHEL. Specifically, rh-java-common was
built using maven30 RPMs and maven30 was built using RHEL 7 content.

CentOS bootstraps SCLs by using external repositories with prebuilt
RPMs, like this one:
