Yeah, apparently.

I really don't like this.
I think we could use bash feature instead.
echo ${netfile//foo/bar}
But even after converting the two above sed rules with this, I still
have other problem. It is driving me crazy.
When I print the whole download command myself, and copy/paste it to
the shell, it works fine.
But when it gets executed in makepkg with : $(get_downloadcmd foo
bar), it always fail.
