Even if we would expand the $ORIGIN, lintian would currently output the
warning, since it only allows for a very narrow definition of private
directories currently:
grep { !m,^/usr/lib/(games/)?\Q$pkg\E(?:/|\z), } split(/:/, $RPATH{$file})
After looking over the tag page at lintian.debian.org I think we should
consider allowing any subdirectories below /usr/lib instead of only the
package name itself.
Then we can worry about the $ORIGIN support.
