[pkg-php-pear] Bug#1134236: php-dompdf: please make the build reproducible

[Chris Lamb]

Source: php-dompdf
Version: 3.1.4+dfsg-2
Severity: wishlist
Tags: patch
User: reproducible-builds at lists.alioth.debian.org
Usertags: nocheck

Hi,

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

This is because the testsuite generates a DejaVuSans.ufm.json file, which
means that if the tests are not run (ie. if 'nocheck' is specified), then
the binary package contains different contents.

I've attached a patch that deletes this file after the tests are run. If,
however, the file is needed in the binary package, then the packaging will
need to be rejigged to always generate this file regardless of nocheck.
