Source: dolfin Followup-For: Bug #920546 It is a bit of a nuisance. The timeout doesn't happen every time, and when it does happen, it's hanging on a different MPI test each time.
So not so simple to fix, apart from shutting down all MPI tests but that seems a step too far. Fortunately the timeouts are not that common (dolfin's tests are more robust than hypre's). There is a fragile relationship between openmpi and pmix. I wonder if the test timeouts might be related to that. The current new pmix has broken all mpi tests (by losing track of libpmix.so though, not by timeouts). -- System Information: Debian Release: buster/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 4.19.0-1-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_AU.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_AU.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE=en_AU.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) LSM: AppArmor: enabled
