There might not be a compatible RPM available for your setup but you
should look to RedHat (or Fedora) for that but from the sounds of it you
will probably need to upgrade a few other things to before it will work.

I'm not entirely sure what the best way to go about this really is, if
there is a friendly neighbourhood sysadmin you can convince to help you
with the upgrades then I'd strongly recommend you do.

You will also need to upgrade your version of pango

Sorry, compiling from scratch can get really messy and there isn't all
that much advice I can give.
