Hi all,

IMHO, it would be a feasible solution to change MASTER_SITES to LOCAL.
Though the distfiles may not be up to date, it at least guarantees the
build process won't break due to checksum mismatch.

It also has a minor benefit. While updating textproc/sk-mythes, I found
that www.sk-spell.sk.cx is unstable (DNS/server) today. LOCAL is
*stable* as it mirrored worldwide.

At last, we could write a script to detect rerolled tarballs, extract
date string from webpage, and notify office@ members. Then, a committer
would update LOCAL and commit this update.

HTH
