Valid.
It says that there is matlab 7.4.0 rpm for Fedora 5 and 10-15.
Fedora 5 version should be good for CentOS 5 , and Fedora 12 package for CentOS 6.
Link for Fedora 5 package: http://apt.unl.edu/apt/fedora/redhat/5/i386/unl/RPMS/
Not in any way sensible, so don't go anywhere near this.
This just looks like an indexed internal directory at a university full of packages you're really unlikely to want to install. It's old commercial software that won't work without a license. Matlab installs just fine on CentOS from the direct download from Mathworks. Packaging it up is also trivial.
OK.
If it needs license, what would be the harm if you install (newer) version from rpm? Their source RPM is actually nosrc.rpm so they just package it for easier install. I was assuming this when I suggested the packages.
