you're on RHEL5? then use either the gsl from RH, or the gsl from
RPMforge. RH provides gsl-1.13, RPMforge provides gsl-1.14; look at
your yum config to figure out why your system isn't seeing these
packages.

That's very odd. I don't see gsl-1.13 (or any gsl at all) in my RHEL5.5
Workstation install media. I also have a vanilla rpmforge-release set of
yum config files and with those "yum search gsl" returns nothing but

================================= Matched: gsl

perl-Math-Gsl.i386 : Interface to The GNU Scientific Library

Where are you seeing it installable with yum (rather than downloadable
and installable with rpm)?

indeed it appears to be in RHEL5 Server, but not Client:
ftp://ftp.redhat.com/pub/redhat/linux/enterprise/5Server/en/os/SRPMS/
ftp://ftp.redhat.com/pub/redhat/linux/enterprise/5Client/en/os/SRPMS/
a bit strange since GSL can be very useful on a workstation, but....
