Solution
There is a bug in the scriptlet of java-11-amazon-corretto-devel. You cannot do anything about it. Beside reporting it to author of that package.
You can check the scriptlet using: rpm -q --scripts java-11-amazon-corretto-devel
You can remove the package without running the scripts (with all implications): rpm -e --noscripts java-11-amazon-corretto-devel
