Hi,

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

This is because it ships a generated 'Makefile' which, because of the
paths it embeds, may not even work on end-user systems.

Patch attached to simply skip distributing this file.
