[Bug 1073856] Re: Test depends cannot be multiline and are silently ignored if so

same fix with a packaging fix. Also adding a dependency on python-debian
breaks the principle of using on minimal system, but it is already
installed in the test environment as a dependency of update-notifier-
common, so I think it is acceptable.

Title:
  Test depends cannot be multiline and are silently ignored if so

Status in “autopkgtest” package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged
Status in “autopkgtest” package in Debian:
  New

Bug description:
  If I define a test like this:

  Tests: foo
  Depends: @, libfoo,
    libbar

  then autopackage test will prepare this test without libbar and
  without giving any sort of malformed warning.

  This seems really wrong, as debian/control files normally support this
  sort of multiline listing of dependencies
