Hi!
When using custom substitution variables, dh_gencontrol complains about
when they are unused - for every single binary package. This might be a
proper and helpful message for single-binary packages, but in areas
where there are multiple binary packages this is getting a bit annoying
with respect to that one would have to use every single substitution in
all of the binaries just to get rid of the message.
