I would not suggest this complex way in the CG, as this is not needed 
in a up-to-date Fedora 22, which installs automatically the texgyre 
fonts. The dependencies are listed here:

I don't think that it's possible downgrading to 1.82, because I can't 
see this version in fedora 22 repositories.
There's no need to remove the 5.x package: version 1.82 is installed in 
/usr/local, which has higher priority on /usr/bin. Be sure to open a 
new terminal so that settings are reloaded. Here's what I get:

$ which -a texi2html
/usr/local/bin/texi2html
/usr/bin/texi2html
/bin/texi2html

$ texi2html --version
1.82

$ /usr/bin/texi2html --version
5.0
