Subject: epm: When generating RPM, rpm's --target flag is missing a space.
Package: epm
Version: 3.7-1
Severity: normal

Small but annoying bug:
Generating an RPM with epm is currently not possibly unless the -a
option argument includes a space.
For example, this does *not* work:
       fakeroot epm -f rpm -a i386 -nms foo foo.list
while
       fakeroot epm -f rpm -a ' i386' -nms foo foo.list
*does* work.

Turning verbose on, the output shows that epm generates an invalid rpm
command:
       Searching for product information...
       Stripping executables in distribution...
       Creating RPM distribution...
       Creating spec file...
       Copying temporary distribution files...
       Building RPM binary distribution...
       --targeti386: unknown option
       Packaging failed!
