Bug#435577: gdebi is supposed to support pre-depends, it is just broken

[Tim Abbott]

tags 435577 + patch
thanks

gdebi actually has code to support Pre-Depends (because of how it installs 
dependencies before trying to install the target package, installing them 
along with depends works fine).

However, for some reason gdebi reads a field called PreDepends, not 
Pre-Depends (perhaps due to confusion related to apt internally having 
something called PreDepends).  Pre-Depends is the thing that appears in 
control files and thus the thing that gdebi should read.

Patch attached.
