Yup, you are right, its set in debian/rules:
:
VIDEOABI = $(shell cat /usr/share/xserver-xorg/videoabiver 2>/dev/null)
INPUTABI = $(shell cat /usr/share/xserver-xorg/inputabiver 2>/dev/null)
VIDDRIVER_PROVIDES = xserver-xorg-video-$(VIDEOABI), xorg-driver-video
INPDRIVER_PROVIDES = xserver-xorg-input-$(INPUTABI), xorg-driver-input
:
:
# This makes sure that the xserver ABI is bumped to match the current one when the
# packages are built
.PHONY: serverabi
serverabi:
echo "xviddriver:Provides=$(VIDDRIVER_PROVIDES)" >> debian/$(PKG_driver).substvars
echo "xinpdriver:Provides=$(INPDRIVER_PROVIDES)" >> debian/$(PKG_driver).substvars
:
Unfortunately xserver-xorg-core version 2:1.9.4-3 explicitly lists
both xserver-xorg-video and xserver-xorg-video-6 in its "Breaks"
list, so providing "xserver-xorg-video" instead of the old
"xserver-xorg-video-6" does not resolve the conflict.
What would you suggest where I should get the abi version from? Should
I rely upon this volatile procedure at all, or should I simply hardcode
it in debian/rules?
You mentioned "dh_xsf_substvars", but this is not in debhelper, as it
seems.

Harri
