Not to add to the confusion, but it may be safer to add the tools repo instead of the sdk one.

from the command line:
Code:
$ sudo gainroot
# echo "deb http://repository.maemo.org fremantle/tools free" >> /etc/apt/sources.list.d/hildon-application-manager.list
# apt-get update
exit
$
from App.manager (recommended)
:

Jebba's wiki page has this and more information on it.

notes
  • Modifying the hildon-application-manager.list file directly doesn't update "Application Catalogs", and pressing refresh doesn't correct this issue. Either its a bug, or I'm missing something very obvious. Then again, I seem to remember Synaptic Package Manager (Ubuntu) functioning similarly
  • to disable a repo from the text file, just prefix it with a "#"
  • Most everything in the tools repository is meant for people that are comfortable with the command line and miss something from their desktop *nix setup. It is not meant for normal users.
