The URL states:

Install LabPlot on EL6
1st July 2011
Installing LabPlot on EL6 can be a bit daunting as compiling from source 
can be problematic due to odd dependency issues, however the packages 
from Fedora 14 install and work just fine, provided you have EPEL enabled:

mkdir /tmp/labplot; cd /tmp/labplot
wget 
http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/releases/14/Everything/x86_64/os/Packages/LabPlot-1.6.0.2-8.fc12.x86_64.rpm 
http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/releases/14/Everything/x86_64/os/Packages/LabPlot-doc-1.6.0.2-8.fc12.x86_64.rpm 

yum localinstall --nogpgcheck ./LabPlot-*


And voila!
As I said this operation requires the EPEL repo enabled for some 
packages (electronics-menu and liborigin) so make sure your system has it.

End URL.

Who has used the EPEL repo?  Does this repository create conflicts 
(e.g., installing incompatible or very "buggy" RPMs) with RHEL 6 (e.g., 
SL6)?

Note that I have successfully moved a recent Lab Plot that I built on 
RHEL 5.5 IA-32 (CentOS 5.5) that ran under RHEL 5.6, and runs under 
RHEL6 X86-64 provided I copy all of the needed IA-32 libraries into the 
correct directories.  The IA-32 libraries in question do not seem to 
cause any instabilities with X86-64 SL 6.
