Did you follow instructions on the webpage? ( http://centos.karan.org/ )

Yes, I did.   On that page is written (among other things):

...............
  There are two repositories hosted here, the Fedora Extras rebuilt for CentOS and the Misc pkg. The Misc pkg tree includes various rpms that I have built from source or src.rpm rebuilds. There might be pkgs there that will overwrite / replace core pkgs included in CentOS. To use the Misc Pkgs repository, you will need the FExtras repo enabled as well, some of the dependencies are resolved there.
..............

There is nowhere to find .repo file for  FExtras.    I am assuming that this  kbsingh-CentOS-Extras.repo   is the correct .repo file for FExtras.
And, I am assuming that this kbsingh-CentOS-Misc.repo  is the .repo file for Misc Pkgs.

So, I've installed both .repo files into /etc/yum.repos.d/

Here is the list. As you can see there IS the karan (kbsingh) repo file(s)
/etc/yum.repos.d/CentOS-Base.repo
/etc/yum.repos.d/CentOS-Media.repo
/etc/yum.repos.d/CentOS-fasttrack.repo
/etc/yum.repos.d/epel-testing.repo
/etc/yum.repos.d/epel.repo
/etc/yum.repos.d/kbsingh-CentOS-Extras.repo
/etc/yum.repos.d/kbsingh-CentOS-Misc.repo
/etc/yum.repos.d/mirrors-rpmforge
/etc/yum.repos.d/rpmforge.repo

Once everything was in place I've typed:

[root@legolas ]# yum install gnumeric

Here I am now.  I do not know how to procede from here.

Any help is very welcome
