Yeah, there's something right weird going on here. I can't reproduce
locally.
this package doesnt run tests at buildtime:
https://salsa.debian.org/python-team/packages/pytest-mpi/-/blob/master/debian/rules#L22-23
introduced with commit ed09145197737e3f15cfa75df9377604925f97a2
so maybe there's something problematic with this package?
I've also recently updated pytest, and that's how i noticed the
failure, but it looks like it's unrelated to that.
Is re-enabling tests at building be a good idea?
We actually can't run tests at build-time, something to do with pytest
not being able to use the plugins from the local build dir. At least
that's how it was when I tried it, I couldn't get them to run
successfully, that's why I left testing in the hands of debci.
Note that I do run the tests locally. autopkgtest is passing fine on my
own system, including the py39-mpi-oldpt test. It's not attempting to
rebuild mpi4py wheels.
Can take a closer look at ed09145. Patches (and team uploads) welcome
if you find the fix.
