Lintian tag: package-contains-python-coverage-file
Type: warning
Description (from lintian-explain-tags
)
The package contains a file that looks like output from the Python
coverage.py tool. These are generated by python{,3}-coverage during a test
run, noting which parts of the code have been executed. They can then be
subsequently analyzed to identify code that could have been executed but
was not.
As they are unlikely to be of utility to end-users, these files should not
be shipped in the final binary package.
