The autopkgtests are failing since the recent upload
https://ci.debian.net/data/packages/unstable/amd64/libs/libscout/latest-autopkgtest/log.gz

Some issues

* debian/test/control:

The use of "Test-Command" is invalid, it should be "Tests" instead now
that it's a script

* debian/test/run-tests.sh

- the set -x makes it print on stderr which is failing the tests

- "if ! libscout; then" is retuning an error/text on stdout since the
syntax is invalid, the libscout binary expect a -o argument


Unsure what the test is checking by calling the binary with an invalid
syntax? the command seems to just print out the help in that case, is
that useful output?

IIRC, it should be a smoke check.  Please fix as needed.  A real test
would be even better.
