How does one create a pkgsrc package for a software package whose
master site only supports HTTPS downloads?  For example, if I set

  PKGVERSION=     8.0.2b
  MASTER_SITES=   https://launchpad.net/vm/8.2.x/${PKGVERSION}/+download/

in the Makefile, I get:

  ftp: Can't lookup `https:ftp': No address associated with hostname
  ftp: Can't connect or login to host `https:(null)'
  fetch: Unable to fetch expected file vm-8.0.2b.tgz
