I am trying to build elasticsearch version 7.2 on PPC64LE inside a `registry.access.redhat.com/ubi7/ubi-minimal` based container.

Initially I ran into `error: unmappable character (0xE0) for encoding US-ASCII` errors, which were resolved by exporting `export JAVA_TOOL_OPTIONS=-Dfile.encoding=UTF8` .

However now I am facing the following error as below:-

```auto
Picked up JAVA_TOOL_OPTIONS: -Dfile.encoding=UTF8
Starting a Gradle Daemon (subsequent builds will be faster)
