Hi,

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

This is because the binary embeds an absolute path to the
data/rhythmbox.gep file, presumably so that the file can be located
from a development/git checkout or similar.

As this is not necessary (and won't ever resolve) in a regular Debian
context, the attached patch replaces the reference to the absolute
build directory to ".", i.e. the current directory.
