[Debian-med-packaging] Bug#1121075: virulencefinder: please make the build reproducible

[Chris Lamb]

Source: virulencefinder
Version: 2.0.5-2
Severity: wishlist
Tags: patch
User: reproducible-builds at lists.alioth.debian.org

Hi,

Whilst working on the Reproducible Builds effort [0], we noticed that
virulencefinder could not be built reproducibly.

This was because it ships a different binary package depending
on whether the tests are run or not, which was caused by the
packaging overriding dh_auto_test and therefore effectively
disabling PYBUILD_AFTER_TEST.

Patch attached that moves the "rm -rf" call from the (currently
ignored PYBUILD_AFTER_TEST) to inside override_dh_auto_test.
