** Description changed:

  Please sync rocprim 5.7.1-2 (universe) from Debian unstable (main)
  
- This sync requires a FeatureFreeze exception. This package version
- requires rocm-hipamd 5.7.1, which is being tracked in
- https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/rocm-hipamd/+bug/2058606.
+ This version builds the tests for Navi 31, Navi 32 and Navi 33 GPUs. It
+ also fixes test failures on Navi 22, Navi 23, Navi 24, and Rembrandt
+ hardware.
  
- # Why a new upstream version is necessary
- 
- 1. The upstream ROCm 5.7.1 version was the last release of the ROCm 5
- series. While both ROCm 5.5 and ROCm 5.7 are no longer supported
- upstream, there will be a much larger community using ROCm 5.7.
- Knowledge sharing within this larger community will be beneficial for
- the long-term maintenance of the noble release.
- 
- 2. The versions of ROCm components included on Ubuntu Noble are very
- inconsistent. This FeatureFreeze exception is one of several that I will
- be filing in an attempt to get as much of the ROCm stack as possible
- onto the upstream 5.7.1 release. The narrower the range of versions, the
- better. Ubuntu does not have significant automated testing for the AMD
- GPU libraries, so it is safer to use versions that closely correspond to
- what upstream and Debian are using (as both do significant testing on
- these libraries).
- 
- Honestly, the changes to the Debian packaging from this sync are more
- valuable than the upstream changes in rocprim. The debian patches fix
- rocthrust, hipcub and rocsparse on Navi 22, Navi 23, Navi 24, and
- Rembrandt hardware. Still, I would still strongly recommend the upgrade
- to get the entire ROCm stack onto the same version.

- build tests. The upstream change log is also attached.
