Re: Finishing the ROCm 6 update

[Christian BAYLE <bayle@debian.org>]

Hello,

I see 6.1.2 packages available in experimental

does it mean that all should be built against 6.1.2 ?

As available in https://salsa.debian.org/rocm-team/rocm-llvm
Or switch to the last release
https://github.com/ROCm/llvm-project  6.3.3 ?

Or taking a set based on the rocm-build
https://github.com/ROCm/ROCm/blob/develop/tools/rocm-build/rocm-6.3.3.xml ?
