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

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...

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