Upstream suggests that debian should *not* compile python3-h5py against
OpenMPI by default, and based on the current performance of the package
in 2.10.0-2 I agree with them:
https://github.com/h5py/h5py/issues/1433#issuecomment-552640391
It's really quite annoying to have this package printing messages to
stderr (not to mention the performance issues mentioned above and in
#944617).
This is a pretty critical package for a lot of scientific applications,
and these new performance and messy output issues are proving to be
quite problematic.
Thanks for the attention.
