I don't think devtoolset was added to koji for el6. It's in
the mock configs, so you can build locally. But IIRC,
support for el6 was left out with an informal "let's wait to
see if there's much (or any) demand for it" policy.
It seems to be available for epel7 in koji, but mock-core-configs
doesn't contain a ppc64 target config even though koji does have it.
I opened https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1637059 and was
told that epel7 ppc64 mock configs never existed before, which is
strange, considering koji does build for epel7 on ppc64.
What's more worrying is that CentOS mirrors seem to be missing
devtoolset repo for ppc64. It's available only for x86_64, aarch64 and
ppc64le. Consequently, it's not possible to reproduce koji builds with
devtoolset on ppc64 locally in mock. Any ideas where I should open
a bug report for this?

There should be a science of discontent. People need hard times and
oppression to develop psychic muscles.
