Hi !

.. i think, first  you have to import the epel-gpgkey

http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/EPEL/FAQ

  How can I install the packages from the EPEL software repository?

There are repository rpm packages for RHEL4 and RHEL5 . The repository
package installs the repo details on your local system for yum or up2date
to use. Then you can install packages with your usual method, and the EPEL
repository is included.

su -c 'rpm -Uvh http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/epel/5/i386/epel-release-5-3.noarch.rpm'
...
su -c 'yum install foo'

Martin, thank you so much. This was indeed a problem. I enabled the
repository, then did

sudo yum install dkms

However, it seems there is a problem with something about the dkms package.
Here's the response:

Now I'm completely lost. Is this a failure with the package ?

hmm, misterious ...

http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/epel/4/i386/repoview/dkms.html

Did you enabled the epel-repository with

/epel.repo

 enabled=0


in enabled=1

or

yum  --enablerepo=epel install

Still doing sudo yum install dkms gives me

 yum didn't find it during the install of dkms-openafs, which means it
isn't
in yum's list of configured repositories.

dkms isn't an official part of RHEL. It is available from EPEL, or as
part
of Scientific Linux.
