I'm afraid adding a mode to handle improper/malformed input would be difficult, because that depends on the amount of “improperness”, and because it looks like a smell that ideally should be fixed elsewhere. For example if you only had substvars that add entire new dependency information, then just using the Dpkg::Substvars replacements with possibly empty variables, could do it, but if as you mentioned these are embedded inside dependency syntax, then that'd be indeed a problem.
It's totally OK to say no, even if you're not able to tell me how to fix my own problem. It's more that if you were (very) willing to add that option it would give me some easy breathing room with that particular issue. Not a perfect solution, but better than what I have now and probably good enough in practice. But again, feel free to close this issue as wontfix and I'll think about my options.
Either way, thanks for the discussion. Paul
