--- Comment #3 from Mathieu Arnold <mat@FreeBSD.org> ---
See the note in
https://www.freebsd.org/doc/en/books/porters-handbook/makefile-distfiles.ht=
ml#makefile-master_sites-gitlab-multiple
saying :

  As this is only syntactic sugar above DISTFILES and MASTER_SITES,
  the group names must adhere to the restrictions on group names
  outlined in Section 5.4.9, =E2=80=9CMultiple Distribution or Patches Files
  from Multiple Locations=E2=80=9D

And section 5.4.9 has an important bloc saying:

  The group names cannot have dashes in them (-), in fact, they
  cannot have any characters out of the [a-zA-Z0-9_] range. This
  is because, while make(1) is ok with variable names containing
  dashes, sh(1) is not.

--=20
