The house is over 25 years old and the crack has been there for many

somehow repair the crack before painting the ceiling. It is about 5
feet long and probably about a sixteenth of an inch wide (or less).
It in a second story bathroom and there are no other such cracks in
the house.


Good. Follow Jeff's advice and it should be fine.
