package-contains-python-coverage-file
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.
