Hi,
Whilst working on the Reproducible Builds effort [0], we noticed that
guidata could not be built reproducibly.
This is because the testsuite generates two files (test.h5 and
test.json) which contain unreproducible contents. These files are then
shipped in the binary package and thereby make the package
reproducible.
As an aside, these were shipped directly under
/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages. This is definitely wrong and possibly
violates some policy or other. (Indeed, I thought I had once expanded
Lintian to complain about these.)
A patch is attached that makes the testsuite correctly cleanup after
itself.
