The Fedora maintainer asked upstream about it a while back:
https://sourceforge.net/p/mediatomb/bugs/114/

I have not checked how extensive the patching is, but I expect
unbundling libupnp from mediatomb would be a lot of work which noone
has volunteered to do.

Upstream appears to be dead which is why they haven't fixed it.

Thanks,
James
