I just googled for mtpfs and EPEL and here is answer:
"

Just a note that it won't compile for EPEL 6.  The error is:

checking for MTP... configure: error: Package requirements (libmtp >= 1.1.0) were not met:
Requested 'libmtp >= 1.1.0' but version of libmtp is 1.0.1

(libmtp is provided by RHEL, so it's not so easy to upgrade)"

from https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=820583.

If I try to remove libmtp from my system, I get this:

Transaction Summary
=========================================================

So best course of action could be to ask Red Hat to upgrade libmtp to 
 >=1.1.0 and
add mtp packages from Fedora, and only if they refuse to ask RPMFusion 
or Repoforge
repositories to add them to their repo.
