I opened #970344 against ncbi-blast+ to document the issue. One
thing that should work, should time become of the essence, would
be to run kaptive.py in single threaded mode, using flag "-t 1":
kaptive.py \
-t 1 \
-a exact_match.fasta \
-k
/usr/share/${pkg}/reference_database/Klebsiella_k_locus_primary_reference.gbk \
-o output/test
Maybe it would be worth adding a flaky run multi-threaded in
that case as well, and point to #970344 to indicate where
intermittent results come from.

Alas, I'm afraid the Biopython 1.78 update didn't help in that
matter.
