(1) Many of us on 5.6 have installed to /etc/yum.repos.d an extra file
for an extra, probably temporary, new repository called 'CR'. Unsure
what CR means but it might be 'Continuous Revision'.
(2) You write you are on 5.5 so I am unsure whether the 'CR' repo is
also for you. No doubt others will enlighten us.
(3) The contents of the CR repo are (the file name is your own choice):-
# CentOS-CR.repo
#
# The continuous release ( CR ) repository contains rpms from the
# next point release of CentOS, which isnt itself released as yet.
#
# Look at http://wiki.centos.org/AdditionalResources/Repositories/CR
# for more details about how this repository works and what users
# should expect to see included / excluded
[cr]
name=CentOS-$releasever - CR
baseurl=http://mirror.centos.org/centos/$releasever/cr/$basearch/
gpgcheck=1
enabled=1
gpgkey=file:///etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-CentOS-5
priorities=1
(4) As you will notice, in the file is a link for further information.
(5) If this file is for your 5.5, then install it then do a
yum update
and you should see things being installed.

Paul.
