Hello all,

I recently tried to specify a source URL in a PKGBUILD of the form "scp://host:file". This caused all kinds of problem because, despite a DLAGENT for scp existing in the default makepkg.conf, that is an invalid URL for scp.

After a bit of discussion in #archlinux, the correct solution seemed to be patching makepkg to seperate the protocol from the URL. So here's a patch.

Hi, I am working on completely overhauling the source downloading (see patchset just sent to the list) and have included this fix there. Allan
