Hi,So I have pushed to salsa a commit switching mpi defaults for 32-bit platforms to mpich.https://salsa.debian.org/science-team/mpi-defaultsI propose to push this to unstable. I will hold off on any changes to openmpi or mpich (except to experimental).How do I do such a transition? I can't easily test as I lack 32-bit hardware. It _should_ be fine as MPICH builds and worksSo I'm seeking release team advice before proceeding.
I guess we need to set up a tracker for the affected architectures to transition from openmpi to mpich. But please hold the upload until we have that tracker and we can verify there are no conflicts.
I have pushed a tracker to the transition tracker, it should be visible on release.debian.org/transitions/ in an hour or two.
