Thanks!

@ben.boeckel, I was slightly incorrect about [Conduit](https://llnl-conduit.readthedocs.io/en/stable/index.html), it’s a `.a` rather `.so`. It’s an HPC data exchange module, that @utkarsh.ayachit used for [Catalyst2 API](https://www.kitware.com/catalyst-improvements-in-paraview-5-9/) back in PV 5.9.

Comparing my 5.9.1 build and 5.10.0:

- in 5.9.1: I have `install/lib/libconduit_catalyst2.0.a` and `libcatalyst.so`,
- in 5.10.0 I only have `libcatalyst.so`.

I will recheck this Python issue later today and report here.
