Yes, I figured it was one line, so it would be submitted fast, but that was
about a month ago now... I'll follow up, and if I don't get a response, I'll
make a pull request.

Understood, I'll use libfoo.so.X{,.*} as per the guidelines (e.g. include
major).

> packaging problems or should I also expect functional problems?

While I haven't specifically tested 5.0.0 on real HW, I don't expect functional
issues.
The issues are mostly packaging related.

That's fair, I'll drop it. I'm not sure of my original rational

"libcomgr" is a very Debian style of naming packages. I prefer rocm-comgr
because it's more descriptive to users, which seems like the more fedora thing
to do :)
E.g. Fedora has:

icd-ocl (icd loader for opencl)

where Debian has:

ocl-icd-libopencl1

Although with that said, the library is actually called libamd_comgr, so
alternatively we can match the cmake file name and call the package
"amd-comgr". I can hold off updating the spec to give it some thought.

In contrast, upstream just calls their package "comgr".
