When a package you want is missing, a good place to look is in the
CentOS repositories. Like SL, it's built from RHEL sources, and it has
some extra packages in supplementary "demanded" by users.
And then there's the EPEL (I think, but I don't recall what it stands
for - maybe it's FPEL) folk who're building Fedora packages for EL.
