In addition to your new tag, we can probably also check for the
following conditions:

1. Prerequisite is not a development package (does not end with -dev)
2. Prerequisite is not being built from the same source package.

Do those make any sense? Also, could the field Build-Depends-Package
list more than one prerequisite?

Kind regards,
Felix Lechner
