Thanks for the patch!

Does debian/control need an update (beside the standards version), or will
all the magic happen via mpi-default-dev?

It looks like that should be the only necessary change, and swapping mpi-default-dev will do the rest.

Just for the record, this is a transition that's been dragging on for about a year and a half, so "soon" is definitely not "immediate"!
