Once you use --nodeps, you know you are doing it wrong.
Uninstall the rpm and show us the dependency error.

better still, talk to the person who built those rpms and/or use the support mechanism for the repository where those packages came from.
issues of this nature should be fixed at source of the issues, not at the user end.

indeed. were these RPMs built specifically for RHEL5/CentOS5 ? if not, then I'm not remotely surprised they don't work.

Well, if the original poster got his mono from CentOS, the person who built the rpms would be Johnny Hughes. :-)
At any rate, the easiest way to install mono on CentOS 5 will be to run:
yum --enablerepo=centosplus groupinstall Mono

Those instructions are good except I don't think centosplus needs enabling as the Mono group is in extras ... so this should work:
yum groupinstall Mono

There is a little problem here :-)
mono-core requires libgdiplus. When I browsed the extra/ directory, I saw libgdiplus in there. BUT,
# yum --disablerepo * --enablerepo=extras install libgdiplus (snip) Nothing to do
# yum --disablerepo * --enablerepo=centosplus install libgdiplus (snip) Dependencies Resolved
============================================================================= Package Arch Version Repository Size ============================================================================= Installing: libgdiplus x86_64 1.2.5-1.el5.centos centosplus 375 k
Transaction Summary ============================================================================= Install 1 Package(s) Update 0 Package(s) Remove 0 Package(s)
This was why centosplus had to be enabled to install mono. I am sure Johnny can "fix" this problem easily. :D

Installing rpms with --nodeps is just as bad as surgery --no_anesthesia!
