I didn't get this rpm using yum, but by manually downloading it. Yum is configured properly:

[vmarko at sith ~]$ yum repolist
Loading "fastestmirror" plugin
repo id              repo name                                 status
addons               CentOS-5 - Addons                         enabled
adobe-linux-i386     Adobe Systems Incorporated                enabled
base                 CentOS-5 - Base                           enabled
epel                 Extra Packages for Enterprise Linux 5 -   enabled
extras               CentOS-5 - Extras                         enabled
rpmforge             Red Hat Enterprise 5 - RPMforge.net - da  enabled
updates              CentOS-5 - Updates                        enabled

[vmarko at sith ~]$ yum search djvu
Loading "fastestmirror" plugin
Loading mirror speeds from cached hostfile
 * epel: ftp-stud.hs-esslingen.de

So yum does not help here, or I need another repository which has djvulibre package for CentOS 5.2, or some other way to be able to view djvu files. Please give some advise on this.

I am aware of this. In general I prefer using yum over any other option, but it seems I am out of usual options here, so I've tried the less viable ones (and was not successful).
 
Best, :-)
