Help? That is near magic!

I did a bit of tweaking and ended up with this:
sed -i '/\[sl6x.*\]/,/\n\n/ { /baseurl/ {
 h ; s!http:.*scientific/!https://my.server/path/to/sl! ; p ;
 g ; s/baseurl=/                / } }' /etc/yum.repos.d/sl6x.repo

This uses the \n\n as the end of field marker - it seemed that using [
would cause it to not match the middle repo - as its next evaluation was
against sl6x-security].

That will now loop through all the repos defined in sl6x.repo and add a
local mirror to them all.

Thanks for this pointer - I certainly wouldn't have come up with this
one by myself....
