Fedora is more open to feature updates than other Red Hat products, but if
you really want the latest version, grab it from Rawhide's SRPM collection
and rebuild. Some packages provide reasonable RPM's upstream, and in those
cases I rebuild their SRPM. SpamAssassin is a good example of that.
Instructions for building an RPM from the tarball are included on their
download page.
