rocblas 2.6.0 won't build without hip 2.6.0, see my comment in that AUR package

when can we expect 2.6?

rocblas 2.6.0 won't build without hip 2.6.0, see my comment in that AUR package

@mardab Do you have this file installed properly by hip?

On my machine:

$ pacman -Ql hip | grep libhip_hcc_static.a 
hip /opt/rocm/hip/lib/libhip_hcc_static.a

I'm updating it to 2.5.0 right now, maybe that will help

Tried to install in a certain order (rocm-cmake-git/hip/hcc, then rocblas), but every single time rocblas installation failed with libhip_hcc_static.a missing

I am having the exact same issue as described below with the same error messages. Getting that both when trying to install rocblas as installing rocrand.

I somehow managed to get everything install without changes/patches by merely manually building everything with makepkg in the cache folder. First hip, then rocblas

Which puts me back at square 1 with the same questions

1. Why does that work?
2. Why did it not work with yay before?

But I don't expect anyone to be able to answer that. Also I do have rocm-cmake-git installed

I have manually installed hip, hcc and rocm-cmake-git but i still get the error for the mussing static lib in the .cache folder. The patch for the pkgbuild in the package section did not work for me. How do i achieve that this build script does a lookup in the /opt pathes where the packages are installed?

@nil @rigred do you guys have rocm-cmake-git installed? Maybe it's needed for this package and I forgot to specify it

@rigred I could get around this error by modifying the PKGBUILD of hip. Added this in the package section to replace the faulty file:

cp "$srcdir/HIP-roc-$pkgver/packaging/hip-targets-release.cmake" "${pkgdir}/opt/rocm/hip/lib/cmake/hip/hip-targets-release.cmake"

Interesting, but I'm not sure what the fix is. I've seen builds of other packages reference the build directories, but the final linkage works for me (although I have other problems)
