Anne,

If you are going for a binary RPM FC6 would be the best bet, but a 
better approach would be a rebuild from SRPM.  The 
kipi-plugins-0.1.3-5.fc7.src.rpm from FC7 updates builds on CentOS 5.3 
after satisfying dependencies from EPEL and ATrpms.  Had to disable 
RPMforge due to dependency issues to get it to work.
