Hi Dave,

You have two options: 1) build your own RPM from the source; 2) use
one of the FedoraLegacy mirrors[1].  This one Australia has been
active and useful to me:

but there's a whole list of them here:

As you suggest it's probably worth transitioning to a newer version as
soon as you can.  Have you considered using RHEL instead because of
the longer support cycle?

Best wishes,

1. FedoraLegacy may not be around much longer!  They have problems
with getting enough community support/funding.  Most people that want
a platform with longer maintenance times use RHEL (or if they can't
afford the licensing CentOS).  Probably you know that.  Good luck.
