you got an older version from EPEL.

Using explicit requires (including version numbers is discouraged).

So the question is: why wasn't the newer version included in the RDO
repo: I can't answer that, it was just forgotten. The same is also true
for  e.g python-keystoneclient in a updated version.

python-django-compressor-1.2 is in EPEL for nearly 10 months now. Still,
the version from EPEL is too old; sadly, I can not simply upgrade it.
