Looks like this wasn't the first time the terminator package installs
this file. #684873 was about the same problem.

Terminators setup.py offers a global argument called
"--without-icon-cache" which disables the build of icon-themen.cache.
#684873 was fixed by overwriting dh_auto_install and call "python
setup.py ..." directly (commit 2271ffc9).

I wasn't able to find any way to tell pybuild to pass any argument right
after "python3 setup.py" and the action it should call (for instance
"install"). Passing --install-args to pybuild doesn't work. Therefor I
did the same thing as in commit 2271ffc9. Overwrite dh_auto_-install.

Attached you will find a patch for debian/rules which contains the
orverwrite_dh_auto_install rule.

Cheers,
 - Adrian
