Fedora EPEL 5 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2017-03-31. Fedora EPEL 5
is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further
security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug.

you are unable to reopen this bug, please file a new report against the current
release. If you experience problems, please add a comment to this bug.
