That's what I did but on EPEL a lot of people develop their own business applications, which of course I can't and shouldn't rebuild, and in many cases they're "validated" so changing is very painful. For now I reverted back to 0.5.1 in EPEL (with -static subpackage) and created a COPR for those who want to work with the newer version. Thanks, Richard
