Command terminal errors indicate a conflict in requirements.

rpm -i libhdf5-0-1.8.2-2.2.i586.rpm
warning: libhdf5-0-1.8.2-2.2.i586.rpm: Header V3 DSA/SHA1 Signature,
key ID bd432934: NOKEY
	package libhdf5-0-1.8.7-1.6.i586 (which is newer than
libhdf5-0-1.8.2-2.2.i586) is already installed

So version 187 was removed and installation of scilab attempted

rpm -i -a scilab-5.3.1-13.7.i586.rpm
error: Failed dependencies:
	libhdf5.so.6 is needed by scilab-5.3.1-13.7.i586

And the original xcos error occurs! The upgrade of hdf breaks
dependency with earlier version.
