If you installed the new version from source, you may want to check were
it gets installed. Probably in /usr/local, which is a good location for
software that doesn't come from an rpm. But by default, it is not in
your path. Also, many administrative utilities usually end up in one of
the sbin directories (eg /usr/local/sbin), and those are by default only
in root's path (and fedora packages often set up consolehelper for users
to prompt them for the root password before running such applications.

So take a look in /usr/local/bin and /usr/local/sbin and if the tool is
there, you may try running it from there.
