Hi,

Whilst working on the Reproducible Builds effort [0], I noticed
that libdevel-cover-perl could not be built reproducibly.

(The $Base variable appears to be just used during tests.)

Patch attached.

Thank you!
 
I'm a bit hesitant to apply it, because $Base gets written into
lib/Devel/Cover/Inc.pm which is also installed in the binary package,
and $Devel::Cover::Inc::Base is then used several times in
lib/Devel/Cover/Test.pm (which gets also installed in the binary
package). -- OTOH the latter is an "Internal module for testing" and
I see no apparent breakage anywhere. And some random build path in
$Base also doesn't seem totally helpful. -- Still, maybe someone else
could take a quick look as well?


Cheers,
gregor

Indeed. Apologies that I did not clarify this more in my original
bug; "The $Base variable appears to be just used during tests" was
probably not sufficient.
