Package: lintian
Version: 2.5.19
Severity: normal

this looks like a recent regression, iirc 2.5.17 didn't show this:

E: nvidia-graphics-drivers source: version-substvar-for-external-package nvidia-driver -> glx
E: nvidia-graphics-drivers source: version-substvar-for-external-package xserver-xorg-video-nvidia -> glx

excerpts from debian/control:

#Package: ${nvidia}-driver
Package: nvidia-driver
Depends:
 libgl1-${nvidia}-glx (= ${binary:Version}),
 xserver-xorg-video-${nvidia} (= ${binary:Version}),
 nvidia-vdpau-driver (= ${binary:Version}),
 ${nvidia-alternative} (= ${binary:Version}),
 ${nvidia:kmod:binary},
 nvidia-support,
 ${shlibs:Depends}, ${misc:Depends}

#Package: xserver-xorg-video-${nvidia}
Package: xserver-xorg-video-nvidia
Depends:
 libgl1-${nvidia}-glx (= ${binary:Version}),
 ${nvidia-alternative} (= ${binary:Version}),
 nvidia-support (>= 20120630),
 ${nvidia:xorgDepends},
 ${shlibs:Depends}, ${misc:Depends}

PS: if you are asking why I'm doing this ... the same
Depends/Recommends/Suggests blocks are used in the packaging of
nvidia-graphics-drivers-legacy-ABCxx with a different value of
${nvidia}, because I want to keep the diff minimal for easy
diffing and merging...

Hi,

> the package name contains substvars, too

As such variables are (no longer?) valid in the Package, Source and
Architecture fields, I am closing this bug. :)
