How to install latest version of packages on Amazon Linux 1

As we all know that Amazon linux 1 support is no linger available ,hence some of the latest packages are not available for the same,I faced this issue while installing nrpe v 4.0.0 for nagios, The supported version for amazon linux was only 2.3
But I was able to install nrpe 4.0.0 package on my instance my changing the "OS" value in /etc/release file from "Amazon Linux 1" to "Cent OS" .

Since both are Red Hat based, most of the packages might work using this trick
