Today I tested again and the test suites run, not sure, what was the fault before. Into debian/tests/control I inserted:
Depends: asymptote (= ${binary:Version}),
That failed b/c the syntax was not understood. When leaving out the
version specification the test runs fine, but I'm not sure if it is OK
to leave out the version specification.
