libsbml FTBFS if the package "swig" is not installed with the with the following error

checking for gacutil... /usr/bin/gacutil
configure: error: ***************************************************************************
SWIG has been requested via --with-swig, or else is required to update a
language binding dependency, but the program 'swig' cannot be found on this
system.  Please install SWIG, or (if it is installed) check whether an
argument needs to be provided to libSBML's configure --with-swig option so
that the configure program can find 'swig'.

checking for swig... no


Your build-dependencies mention swig but only as a second alternative with
"swig-2.0" being the first alternative.

The desscription of swig says it's a dependency package but it seems that is not
quite true, it seems it also provides a couple of symlinks.

Please either change your build-dependencies to ensure the package "swig"
gets pulled in, fix the detection code to not require those symlinks or otherwise
fix this bug.
