I have the same problem, and have been haunting the DAG Red Hat/Fedora RPM package listings waiting for an RHEL 5 package for Audacity. I could presumably use the FC6 RPM, but I would prefer to stick with RHEL/CentOS.
Another option I am looking at is Sweep, which plays back OK and looks like it does the same kind of thing as Audacity, but I can't make the record work, but then I'm trying to record from a mike. If I can get Krec to work from the mike then I don't need Audacity. All I need is patience and time, both lacking.

As I wrote earlier on this thread, I rebuild audacity 1.3.2 on CentOS 5.0 x86_64 from the FC6 src.rpm. Once you get all library files to fulfill dependencies, running rpmbuild was rather trivial. The only tweak I needed was to edit the .spec file and change:
BuildRequires: wxGTK2-devel to BuildRequires: wxGTK-devel
I am cc'ing this message to Dag hoping he can add audacity for el5 to his repository when he has the time. But he will be busy at LinuxTag for a while, I'm afraid.
