FYI, gallery2 is available in EPEL for EL-5.

I used the info available at http://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/rhel-fedora-centos-linux-enable-epel-repo/ to add the EPEL-repo.

You do not have priorities configured properly. It is not working. IMHO, since you (like me) have both rpmforge and epel configured, you should give epel a very low priority or epel will replace a *LOT* of the packages on your box. Also, I suggest you disable the protecbase plug in. Priorities is newer and more powerful.
