Go into Application Manager (usually under Settings)
Menu -> Tools -> Application catalogue...

That list is all of the current repositories that you've selected.

If you don't have extras-devel in there already, you can add it by clicking "New"

Web address: http://repository.maemo.org/extras-devel
Distribution: diablo
Components: free non-free

Assuming that you're on diablo.

The default state is enabled. If you want to disable that (after you've installed something), go back in, click "Edit" and tick the Disabled box.

Just, fyi, there's a .install linked from the wiki page.
