Expected Behavior

Training mixtral with axolotl

Current behaviour

Shows an error

If I try pip install mpi4py it shows this error

      /root/miniconda3/envs/py3.9/compiler_compat/ld: /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/openmpi/lib/libmpi.so: undefined reference to `opal_list_t_class'

      failure.
      removing: _configtest.c _configtest.o
      error: Cannot link MPI programs. Check your configuration!!!
      [end of output]

  note: This error originates from a subprocess, and is likely not a problem with pip.
  ERROR: Failed building wheel for mpi4py

ERROR: Could not build wheels for mpi4py, which is required to install pyproject.toml-based projects

Steps to reproduce

1. start a machine with Dockerfile*

2. run axolotl mixtral

accelerate launch -m axolotl.cli.train axolotl/examples/mistral/mixtral.yml
