It's an EPEL-only problem. The package just contains a bunch of scripts,
some of which depend on qemu-img. Another possibility would be to exclude
those scripts and the the dependency on qemu-img for i686. But then the
content of the package would be different between arches.

Not sure if that's better though. Or make it an arch package for EPEL and
noarch for Fedora?
