Fedora is upstream for RHEL (ie) RHEL is a derivative distribution of 
Fedora and every third release of Fedora or so is the basis of the 
subsequent RHEL release too. The exact time period varies. Fedora 
releases are 6 months apart and RHEL releases are 12 to 18 months apart 
from each other.

Not really, no. You probably want RHEL or a rebuild of it.
