I assume here you mean s390 (the 32-bit-that's-really-31-bit
architecture) is the architecture you want to target? Because Fedora
(and RHEL) support s390x (the 64-bit successor to s390). IBM has
previously expressed interest in a CentOS build for IBM Z systems for
RDO (specifically the LinuxONE), but I don't know if anything came out
of that. It'd be nice to have all RHEL architectures present in CentOS
Stream. :)

Also have how to deploy packstack on s390x documented at https://www.rdoproject.org/install/linuxone/. But /me not aware of any

future/current plans on that.

As for having s390, there is an AltArch SIG which is currently
producing armv7hl builds, and that would be the right place to extend
and build for s390.
