Context: I am attempting the installation of ROCM 4.2 in my Ubuntu 20.04 so as to have OpenCL (amd-gpu) running in Blender.
Following the guidance page item:
I have attempted to delete any possible version. (sudo apt autoremove rocm-opencl rocm-dkms rocm-dev rocm-utils && sudo reboot
). The terminal returned that no rocm was found.
I proceeded directly to https://rocmdocs.amd.com/en/latest/Installation_Guide/Installation-Guide.html#installing-a-rocm-package-from-a-debian-repository where I reached with no issue up to:
yd@yd:~$ sudo apt install wget gnupg2
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree... Done
Reading state information... Done
wget is already the newest version (1.21-1ubuntu3).
wget set to manually installed.
The following NEW packages will be installed:
gnupg2
0 upgraded, 1 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded.

However, when entering the following:
yd@yd:~$ wget -q -O - https://repo.radeon.com/rocm/rocm.gpg.key | sudo apt-key add
Warning: apt-key is deprecated. Manage keyring files in trusted.gpg.d instead (see apt-key(8)).
OK
The guide mentions an old key and a new key (https://rocmdocs.amd.com/en/latest/Installation_Guide/Installation-Guide.html#ubuntu)
Also, further down, the guide mentions the following:
The gpg key may change; ensure it is updated when installing a new release. If the key signature verification fails while updating, re-add the key from the ROCm apt repository.
The current rocm.gpg.key is not available in a standard key ring distribution, but has the following sha1sum hash:
e85a40d1a43453fe37d63aa6899bc96e08f2817a rocm.gpg.key
What do I need to do before I proceed with the next command indicated in the guide (the next step being echo 'deb ... rocm.list
)?
