Hi,
TL;DR: As in, don't use it, you're going to hurt yourselves, I'm not
kidding.
In ancient times, you had to do horribly complicated stuffs like:
MASTER_SITES= ${MASTER_SITE_LOCAL:S/$/:local/}
${MASTER_SITE_PERL_CPAN:S/$/:cpan/}
MASTER_SITE_SUBDIR= mat/:local DBIx/:cpan
DISTFILES= ${DISTNAME}${EXTRACT_SUFX}:local,cpan
For the past 9 years, to be precise r169110, modulo a few bugs corrections,
you have been able to do:
MASTER_SITES= LOCAL/mat CPAN/DBIx
Please, do, now.
As to why, here are a few examples that, while looking inconspicuously
good, were *not* working as expected, and their new, working, version:
------------------
MASTER_SITES= ${MASTER_SITE_SAVANNAH}:m17n \
${MASTER_SITE_GNU:S/$/:glibc/}
MASTER_SITE_SUBDIR= m17n/:m17n \
glibc/:glibc
------------------ ->
MASTER_SITES= SAVANNAH/m17n:m17n GNU/glibc:glibc
------------------
------------------
MASTER_SITES= ${MASTER_SITE_LOCAL:S|%SUBDIR%|kiri/wmicons|} \
${MASTER_SITE_WINDOWMAKER} \
${MASTER_SITE_PORTS_JP} \
MASTER_SITE_SUBDIR= . contrib/old/icons
------------------ ->
MASTER_SITES= LOCAL/kiri/wmicons \
WINDOWMAKER/contrib/old/icons \
PORTS_JP \
------------------
------------------
MASTER_SITES= ${MASTER_SITE_XCONTRIB} \
${MASTER_SITE_LOCAL}
MASTER_SITE_SUBDIR= cy
MASTER_SITE_SUBDIR= window_managers
------------------ ->
MASTER_SITE_SUBDIR= XCONTRIB/window_managers \
LOCAL/cy
------------------
------------------
MASTER_SITES= ${MASTER_SITE_GNU} \
${MASTER_SITE_SAVANNAH}
MASTER_SITE_SUBDIR= ${PORTNAME:S|$|:src|}
DISTFILES= ${DISTNAME}${EXTRACT_SUFX}:src
------------------ ->
MASTER_SITES= GNU SAVANNAH
DISTFILES= ${DISTNAME}${EXTRACT_SUFX}
------------------
------------------
MASTER_SITES= http://pks.sourceforge.net/:sf
${MASTER_SITE_LOCAL}:local
MASTER_SITE_SUBDIR= .:sf mandree:local
DISTFILES= pks-current.tgz:sf,local
------------------ ->
MASTER_SITES= http://pks.sourceforge.net/ LOCAL/mandree
DISTFILES= pks-current.tgz
------------------
