Description

As of the new jbcs-httpd24-httpd-libs sub-package introduced by ~~JBCS-252~~ there is an issue with the installation process of tomcat-native. The jbcs-httpd24-httpd-libs package filters out the auto-provides/requires of the libapr SOs, so now the auto-requires for APR that's generated by tomcat-native is unsatisfied. This means that even though there is an explicit dependency on jbcs-httpd24-httpd-libs, which provides the required APR libraries, tomcat-native will also install apr/apr-util as a dependency.

We need to filter out the APR libraries from the auto generated requires of tomcat-native.

It is also noteworthy that this isn't a functional issue, tomcat-native still uses the right APR because of the rpath of the SO.

# grep "APR version" /var/log/tomcat8/catalina.2017-02-27.log 
27-Feb-2017 14:15:00.974 INFO [main] org.apache.catalina.core.AprLifecycleListener.lifecycleEvent Loaded APR based Apache Tomcat Native library 1.2.8 using APR version 1.5.2.
# ldd /usr/lib64/libtcnative-1.so | grep -i apr
	libapr-1.so.0 => /opt/rh/jbcs-httpd24/root/usr/lib64/libapr-1.so.0 (0x00007f2c47898000)

The biggest problem that I see coming from this is that if the RHEL repository is disabled (and therefore an install can't get access to apr/apr-util) the tomcat-native installation will fail because it can't get the APR libraries that it doesn't even need/use.
