  Description     : wrapper library to port from cuRAND to HIP

The rocRAND project includes a wrapper library called hipRAND which
allows user to easily port CUDA applications that use cuRAND library to
the HIP layer. In ROCm environment hipRAND uses rocRAND, however in CUDA
environment cuRAND is used instead.

This package provides AMD ROCm hipRAND library. We used to ship it as
part of the rocRAND MUT, but as of version 6.0 the two have been
separated and hipRAND is a standalone source.

This package will be maintained by the Debian ROCm Team.
