Rather than hardcoding that particular location into a manual
/etc/yum.repos.s/*.repo9, it's easiest to do "yum install
yum-conf-epel", This will pull in Scientific Linux configuration
access to the EPEL repository with a full set of mirror setups. The
built-in access to thiese third party repositories, and the
willingness to add a few similarly useful components to the
distribution, is one of the reasons I prever Scientific Linux over
CentOS. It saves me a lot of manual deployment work.
