Is putting packages in subfolder of repo supported?

[zhouchengming1]

I have some packages in the subfolder of my repo, I don't know how to fill the 'packages' field of release in the rosdistro file?
And I notice in the rosdistro package that:

def __init__(self, name, repository_name):
    self.name = name
    self.repository_name = repository_name

    # for backward compatibility only
    self.subfolder = None
    self.status = None
    self.status_description = None

Does this means putting packages in subfolder is not supported anymore?
Thanks!

Well, the new rosdistro get package information from release repo now, so there isn't any problem, sorry for the noise.
