Sorry, that was a typo, it is medley (in Greek "meigma"), not
"meldey".

It can be found under

http://atrpms.net/dist/el4/3rd-party-package-config/

medley-package-config contains config files for yum/apt/smart/up2date
for all known repos for the given distribution.

Be warned that while this expands your package horizon quite a bit,
the mix can be explosive in the sense that some packages in one repo
may conflict with other in other repos. In this case please report a
bug in bugzilla.atrpms.net, which hosts a shared bugzilla for all
non-vendor repos (not only atrpms), and the repos maintainer groups
will iron this out.

If you want to run SL4 in production environments then please be very
carefull as to which repos you will activate. Scientific Linux as a
vendor itself can only directly support its own package pool. You will
probably find friendly advise here on packages from outside SL's
scope, but the proper addressees are the 3rd party repos the packages
came from.

Having said that: enjoy the package ensemble!
