[Debian-med-packaging] Bug#973964: python-biom-format: please make the build reproducible

[Chris Lamb]

Source: python-biom-format
Version: 2.1.9-1
Severity: wishlist

Hi,

Whilst working on the Reproducible Builds effort [0] we noticed that
python-biom-format could not be built reproducibly.

This is because it ships a test ".coverage" file in the binary, and
these files are unreproducible. The "package-contains-python-coverage-file"
Lintian tag should have been triggered for this.

Patch attached.
