Hi,

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

This is because it ships test coverage reports (rendered into HTML) in
the binary package. These files contain "created at" timestamps.

In fact, it ships these files directly under the global Python
namespace (e.g. /usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/htmlcov/index.html),
which is arguably a more significant issue.

However, both can be fixed simply by not shipping the HTML coverage at
all in the binary package; it is unlikely to be of any help to consumers
of this library.

found 1079194 4.3.1-3
tags 1079194 + patch
thanks

The previous fix did not work as the htmlcov directory was being
shipped under (e.g.)

  /usr/lib/python3.14/dist-packages/htmlcov

and not:

  /usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/htmlcov

Simply replacing the "…/python3/…" with "…/python3*/…" would not work
here, as this would leave an empty /usr/lib/python3.14/dist-packages/
directory in the case that testsuite was run. I therefore recommend
the use of PYBUILD_AFTER_TEST; patch attached.
