P.s This is getting repetitive and we are clearly have very different opinions on how to deal with the packages, I don't think there is a reason to continue debating it further. The advantage of this package is that people can trust it, because it comes from AMD directly (we are only copying their files) Until AMDGPU / ROCm binaries end up in the official repositories, there will always be a need to provide a binary of that compute package.

If you think the legacy libraries should be it's own package, you are free to create one. Is there a reason to explain again why this package exists? It provides the whole Compute package for AMD GPUs, and I (and I think other people too) find it useful. Why do you repack the rocm itself? As it is open source, there is no point in that. In order to be better compliant with the Arch rules, and the build id is not really needed (I explained the reason in the previous comments), I think it's better I remove the build id on the next AMDGPU / ROCm release to avoid any further confusion. I don't intend to change that, unless AMD changes that pattern.Р”Р„nd with arch's rules we should replace ahyphen with underscore. As fun and entertaining this discussion has been, and we both gained some extra knowledge, reminder that opencl-amd follows the pattern of the amdgpu-install deb file, which is what I described in my previous comments. (edited on 10:29 (UTC) by is some nice inside details Jeremy got for us, and thanks for contacting him, but I'm afraid it does not affect opencl-amd. Can you then please mark it in the description and in ArchWiki? Currently it says that it is ROCr, but better maybe something like 'ROCr OpenCL and legacy/orca OpenCL repackaged from AMD's ubuntu releases'. The only thing, this should be indicated to users.

Just wanted to know what that is, because there were lots of comments here, and I did not followed them carefully. I don't think there is a reason to continue debating it further. Or somebody does not create a binary repo/pkgbuild for that. I think you mean running it amdgpu installer with opencl=rocr,legacy. It provides the whole Compute package for AMD GPUs Opencl-amd follows the pattern of the amdgpu-install deb file
