Bug#1139704: lmarbles: please make the build reproducible

Source: lmarbles
Version: 1.1.1-1
Severity: wishlist

Hi,

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

This is because it shipped a number of Makefile, Makefile.in and
Makefile.am files as part of the manual/ directory. The Makefile
file was nondetermistic in that it varied on the current shell.

As the Makefile apparatus in this directory is not useful at runtime,
the attached patch simply prevents its installation into the binary
.deb.
