it would be great to get GRASS GIS (requires GDAL and PROJ4) packaged
for ScientificLinux:
http://grass.osgeo.org/

In our community we receive often such request. I can help of course if needed.

Packaging notes are available at:
http://grass.osgeo.org/wiki/Compile_and_Install

Section would be "Geo".
