Bug#658320: False positive version-substvar-for-external-package when using multiarch depends foopackage:any



* Scott Ritchie <scottritchie@ubuntu.com>, 2012-02-01, 16:16:
If I make package foo depend on bar:any (= ${binary:Version}), and the source package provides both foo and bar, lintian will throw the version-substvar-for-external-package error. This is incorrect, as the package is not external.

It's only false positive in the sense that a different error should have been emitted. bar:any is not a valid syntax for packages in Debian (yet).
