<p>
                The shared state cache (sstate-cache) as pointed to by 
                <a class="link" href="ref-variables-glos.html#var-SSTATE_DIR" title="SSTATE_DIR"><code class="filename">SSTATE_DIR</code></a> by default 
                now has two-character subdirectories to prevent there being an issue with too 
                many files in the same directory.
                Also, native sstate-cache packages will go into a subdirectory named using 
                the distro ID string. 
                If you copy the newly structured sstate-cache to a mirror location 
                (either local or remote) and then point to it in 
                <a class="link" href="ref-variables-glos.html#var-SSTATE_MIRRORS" title="SSTATE_MIRRORS"><code class="filename">SSTATE_MIRRORS</code></a>,
                you need to append "PATH" to the end of the mirror URL so that 
                the path used by BitBake before the mirror substitution is 
                appended to the path used to access the mirror. 
                Here is an example:
                </p>
<pre class="literallayout">
     SSTATE_MIRRORS = "file://.* http://someserver.tld/share/sstate/PATH"
                </pre>
<p>
            </p>
