You have PYVERS=$(shell pyversions -vr 2> /dev/null) in your rules
file. Which will return:

$ pyversions -vr
pyversions: missing X(S)-Python-Version in control file, fall back to
debian/pyversions
pyversions: missing debian/pyversions file, fall back to supported versions
2.6 2.7

Yet, you only depend on python. You need python-all.

You have an override_dh_auto_test target in your rules file as well.
Unfortunately, this will cause
DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS=nocheck to be ignored. You need something like:

ifeq (,$(findstring nocheck,$(DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS)))
override_dh_auto_test: ${PYVERS:%=test-python%}
endif
