Makes sense, thank you for the explanation.

Well, that's fine by me if it helps getting the patch applied. In general it
would be nice if ROCm development would happen more in the open. As a Fedora
packager please be aware of your special position as an AMD employee. I know
it's very tempting to use "private" (and more efficient) communication but it
excludes other (also potential) Fedora packagers. So in general it would be
nice if the public git repos would put everyone on the same footing (I think
also AMD would benefit from that eventually).

Please list a more specific so name: The idea is that the packager should be
aware of soname changes and this is more likely if (s)he needs to adapt the
file name in the .spec explicitely. See also:
https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/packaging-guidelines/#_listing_shared_library_files

Other than that I think the package looks good, will try a review soon.

Great, thank you!

packaging problems or should I also expect functional problems?
