I am a bit confused now because I uploaded elpa_2024.05.001-1 to
experimental and that built fine on all arches, also the testsuite seems
to work.

Now, ci.debian.net does show testsuite failures of cp2k with the new
elpa from experimental, but that seems to be unrelated to MPI/32bit.

Did something change in the meantime that means MPICH is now supported?
Was the lack of support for MPICH you mentioned for the architectures in
general or for ELPA in particular?
