Excellent. One of the things that we tried to do with centos4 was to
not duplicate packages which were also in the RPMForge, or
centos.karan.org repositories. Not to turn you away, but  the rpmforge
repository has this package built already. It does not appear to be
built for el5 though. Perhaps you could provide a patch to the
rpmforge folks so that this package would build correctly within their
repository?

The more people that contribute to things like RPMForge the stronger
it will become. And since RPMForge and centos work very closely,
you're helping us out as well.
