Hi Maintainer

The autopkgtests of mpi4py have been failing since the upload of
openmpi 4.1.0-1 to unstable. I'm reporting this for arm64, armhf and
ppc64el, because amd64 and i386 fail in a different way due to
#979041.

I've copied what I hope is the relevant part of the log below.

I've also noticed that during the autopkgtest, there seem to be five
instances of pytest running in parallel and each test is run five
times.   Is this the correct way of testing this package?

autopkgtest [07:23:18]: test command1:
OMPI_MCA_rmaps_base_oversubscribe=yes mpiexec -n 5 pytest-3 --color=no
