Then something is broken in your setup. Does /usr/lib/smart/distro.py
exist? What does rpm -V medley-package-config say?

Why is there a priority? That also looks altered.

I'd install atrpms-package-config, blast away /var/lib/smart/* and
reissue a smart update. Then make sure rpm-db exists like above. Have
your system upgraded, and then go medley-package-config and disable
the channels that you don't want to use.

Don't mess with priorities, they break more than they could ever save
in theory.

That's all just a recommendation, of course.
