How much easier than "yum localinstall package.rpm" do you want?  That
will install the package and any dependencies.

In Fedora 10, double-clicking on .rpm file launches gnome-packagekit
to install the package (and any dependencies).  You can even launch
the GUI from the command-line with gnome-open.
