Bug#475731: debian-policy: substvar reference moved from dpkg-source(1) to deb-substvars(5)
Package: debian-policy
Version: 3.7.3.0
Severity: minor
Tags: patch
Policy 4.10 refers to dpkg-source(1) for details of variable substitutions.
With the version of dpkg-dev in unstable, that information has moved to
its own man page, deb-substvars(5).
Patch attached.
Cheers,
Ian.
