I think if the worst comes to the worst it would be possible to install a FC6 package. Pbone says there is a package for FC6, and also offers an rpm from sourceforge. That may be a possibility too.

Anne,

If you are going for a binary RPM FC6 would be the best bet, but a better approach would be a rebuild from SRPM. The kipi-plugins-0.1.3-5.fc7.src.rpm from FC7 updates builds on CentOS 5.3 after satisfying dependencies from EPEL and ATrpms. Had to disable RPMforge due to dependency issues to get it to work.

Thanks for that info. I'll bear it in mind.
