Re: debian-ai proposals for upcoming GSoC



Hi Abhijith,

I don't think we can do a simple follow-up on our GSOC project from last year, as most of the remaining ROCm packages are quite tricky.

I recently noted that there are a large number of packages in Debian that have AMD GPU support available upstream, but have not had that support enabled in Debian [1]. This might be a good project for GSOC, as it seems like it would be about the right difficulty for a new contributor. I'd be happy to provide guidance to help a contributor to complete this work. However, such a proposal would likely need the support of the Debian Science Team to be successful. And, I suppose that Debian Trixie may be frozen during the GSOC period. That may make the idea of enhancing existing packages infeasible for this year's program.

Sincerely,
Cory Bloor
