If you add the sourceforge repositories you may have better luck. Pick the
proper command from section b2
on this page to add them. I run CENTOS_5.4 (64bit) at work and have been
able to add everything I've needed
using these repositories.

Don't forget to run "yum update" after adding them.
Then run the standard "yum install yada_yada" afterwards.
