Hello
Some more information regarding this bug, the problem is in the %posttrans which adds the alternatives:

alternatives \
 --install %{_libdir}/mozilla/plugins/libjavaplugin.so %{javaplugin} \
 %{_libdir}/IcedTeaPlugin.so %{priority} \
 --slave %{_bindir}/javaws javaws %{_prefix}/bin/javaws%{binsuffix} \
 --slave %{_mandir}/man1/javaws.1.gz javaws.1.gz \
 %{_mandir}/man1/javaws-itweb.1.gz

the problem being that manpages are compressed with xz, so the last part of the alternative definition should be

 --slave %{_mandir}/man1/javaws.1.xz javaws.1.xz \
 %{_mandir}/man1/javaws-itweb.1.xz
