Bug#299753: Broken build-depends

Package: control-center
Severity: serious

The control-center build depends now contain, amongst others:

> libasound2-dev (>= 1.0.3b-1) []

This is invalid syntax in the control file, and does not what you expect
it to do -- most tools will consider this as a no-op, and not demand
this package to be installed. Also, this invalid syntax breaks at least
one archive tool (not too serious, but whatever).
