Thanks for the notice, at the moment the Debian release freeze
will occur on 2023-01-12, and the ROCm 5.2.3 is in a consistent
state in testing, the upcoming Debian 12 bookworm.  I feel a bit
wary updating to unstable right now, but begun bumping version
to 5.4.0 this morning in experimental.  If this sounds okay, I'm
considering not touching the versions in unstable/testing any
more before Debian release, unless there are outstanding issues
in the packages of course.

That being said, in such context, would it still be worth
bumping at least the rocm-cmake version in the unstable and then
testing distribution?

Yay!
