[DRE-maint] Bug#934164: ruby/generate: Should create test dependencies from Depends instead of Build-Depends

[Daniel Leidert]

Package: autodep8
Version: 0.18
Severity: normal

The automatically created autopkgtest reads in the Build-Depends field and
adds the contents to the Depends field of the test file. But to build the
package you usually don't need all the runtime dependencies listed in the
.gemspec file. Also you usually add the requirements found in .gemspec to
the Depends field in debian/control.

IMO the test should therefor read in the Depends field. This would improve
the test significantly.

(a) We would not have to maintain the same list of dependencies both in
Build-Depends and in Depends.

(b) The test would really check, that the Depends field lists at least all
runtime requirements the .gemspec file contains.

Regards, Daniel
