OpenMPI 5.0 drops 32-bit support, so we need to move those archs to MPICH.
This transition is blocking many of the remaining packages rebuilt for
64-bit time_t.
The autopkgtest for slurm-wlm on i386 is blocking testing migration of
mpich:

Testing migration of openmpi is likewise blocked by autopkgtest failures
on i386 of several rdeps:
https://qa.debian.org/excuses.php?package=openmpi
I'm starting to think that it'd be better to drop support for 32bit
architectures from all these rdeps so they can just use openmpi
everywhere and not have i386 autopkgtest failures able to block testing
migration.
Should we advocate this to the maintainer of these packages or is there
something else we can do to improve this situation?
Kind Regards,
