New upstream version of RandomFields 3.1.36 fails to build from source

[Andreas Tille]

I have no idea why the package version of RandomFieldsUtils was not
verified in the Build process but after I added a versioned
Build-Depends in the debian/control file RandomFields builds fine.

Kind regards

      Andreas.
