If you intend to use the packages on Red Hat Enterprise Linux (or clones, such as CentOS or Scientific Linux), take a look at [[EPEL]]. Please note, that very little of the Astronomy stack is available for version 5, though version 6 [http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/SIGs/Astronomy/EPEL6 will be fully supported] (in fact, it already is, if you're already running Beta).
