don't. there's no need, just use the standard yum tools, with their equally silly gui if you really need it. synaptic is really for deb packages, not rpm. you can get it at rpmforge if you really have to, but clearly you don't.

"Apt for rpm"

To use apt / synaptic, the repositories must be "apt repositories".

There used to be apt repos for CentOS 4.x i386.

There is no "apt repo" for CentOS 5. AFAIK.
