From the Policy Manual, 7.1 Syntax of relationship fields:

[...]

In other words, I don't think a space is necessary after the comma, but
it's certainly nice (makes reading easier, if nothing else).
There are some other packets with the same 'bug' - so i can fill a wishlist report?

While writing a parser for apt output i recognzie this.
(He works fine without the spaces too)
