Yep, that's correct. You'd need to add a new autopkgtest to src:clblast
that checks if a GPU is available, and exits with code 77 if not. Feel
free to use [1] that Cory linked.
This will lead to the GPU-needing tests being skipped on the official
ci.debian.net (where no GPUs are available), rather than failing.

Even easier: if any binary packages built by src:clblast depend on any
ROCm library, they will be automatically tested on ci.rocm.debian.net.
It's a bit trickier if there is no binary dependency (eg: some dlopen
approach), but that can be worked around. Please let me know if that is
the case.
Our CI is still under development and feedback from maintainers would be
greatly appreciated, so please do share feature requests, if you have them.
Best,
Christian
