Yes, that's possible. However, you can do this yourself by modifying the
SPEC file in Github and providing a pull-request.

Pull requests are highly appreciated. I know we are far behind
processing them, but the day will come... :-/
And then we get to the point that libupnp is very hard to upgrade on eg.
RHEL5 and RHEL4 (even though it compiles fine) because it breaks ABI.
Older videolan, mplayer and others do not compile against newer libupnp...
On RHEL6, the newer vlc does compile with the newer libupnp, haven't
tested mplayer yet. But again something fairly simple quickly becomes a
nightmare. Which is why I only touch the whole multimedia set once every
year :-(
What is de advantage of the newer libupnp ?
