Instead libstdc++.so.6 is present, butdoes not provide the neede
functionality.

I run Ubuntu, but I could just install the package "libstdc++5" to get the older version as well. Something similar probably holds for Fedora. Check your package manager (or whatever Fedora uses).

It lives in compat-libstdc++-XY, where "XY" varies -
depending on which version of Fedora you are running.

Ask the package manager:
$ yum provides libstdc++.so.5

Then install the package listed, that provides the old
package for backwards compatibility. (a.k.a. "compat")
