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<http://centos.karan.org/kbsingh-CentOS-Extras.repo>
is the correct .repo file for FExtras.
And, I am assuming that this
kbsingh-CentOS-Misc.repo<http://centos.karan.org/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:

[EMAIL PROTECTED] ]# yum install gnumeric

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

Any help is very welcome
