Install latest ROCm

ARM
1

Hello,

is there a way to install the latest ROCm version under Manjaro 25.0.0?

I tried to install the opencl-amd package via AUR, but there are too many conflicts with the current version.
I also don’t dare to delete the packages that cause the conflicts because I don’t know what is involved and if i delete something important.

The background is that there is a bug in the ROCm version from the Manjaro repo (6.2) that causes problems with my Radeon RX 7900 XTX, so that I cannot use Ollama correctly with local AI models.

The bug is supposed to be fixed in the latest version (6.3).

Kind regards

Conflicts only occur when files has been added to the system outside the package manager - e.g. when running make && sudo make install.

Such command should be avoided on a stable system.

The only way to rid yourself of such conflicts is to run the equivalent sudo make uninstall (whatever you used to install).

When building from AUR you must change to unstable branch and do a full system sync before attempting build.

sudo pacman-mirrors --api --set-branch unstable
sudo pacman -Syu
pamac build opencl-amd

I have done a test build and install of opencl-amd without any issues.
