xfig and transfig are in centos 5, why don't you just use the regular centos repo?
We have tried it says no packages available..if its working for you can you please paste you .conf file here?
Strange... As said, it is in the CentOS base repo..
# yum list xfig ... Available Packages xfig.x86_64 3.2.4-21.3.el5 base
http://vault.centos.org/5.5/os/i386/CentOS/xfig-3.2.4-21.3.el5.i386.rpm http://vault.centos.org/5.5/os/x86_64/CentOS/xfig-3.2.4-21.3.el5.x86_64.rpm
What does "yum list xfig" say? _______________________________________________ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos

You don't have your "base" CentOS repository configured. What have you done to /etc/yum.repos.d/CentOS-Base.repo, or have you been doing something strange to /etc/yum.conf? And what is this "Rocks-5.4" repository?

Rocks 5.4 is a recompile of CentOS 5 oriented towards compute clusters.

Well, that *would* explain it. It's not CentOS, it's a rebuild, and those components haven't been rebuilt.
You'll need to work with the Rocks packagers to provide access to that tool, or perhaps even strip out a copy of the files from the centos-release package, particularly /etc/yum.repos.d/CentOS-Base.repo, mark its repos disabled, and enable them only has necessary to get specific software packages such as xfig and transfig.

Rocks 5.4 is not a recompile of CentOS 5, it uses CentOS as its base distribution, and add configuration, database, tools, MPI, batch job scheduler etc..., for HPC calculation.
As a yum update may break the configuration, /etc/yum.repos.d/ is empty by default.
I use myself Rocks, an I populate /etc/yum/repos.d/ by copying what I have on other CentOS workstations, but avoid to do any update.
With Rocks, you do update by upgrading to the newest version (which would be Rocks 5.5, based on CentOS 5.6...).
