Opencl-amd, opencl-nvidia and intel-compute-runtime are in conflict

Issues & Assistance
1

Hi

I know this may be a special case, but wondering if anyone else had this issue and how they got around it?

I was trying to run an update just now and it was failing because of conflicts between 3 versions of OpenCL.

First was the hard break

looking for conflicting packages...
error: unresolvable package conflicts detected
error: failed to prepare transaction (conflicting dependencies)
:: opencl-amd and opencl-nvidia are in conflict

When I uninstalled CUDA and nvidia-opencl (which I installed to do some CUDA work with an Nvidia GPU that is no longer in the system) it ran to a soft break saying.

opencl-amd and intel-compute-runtime are in conflict (opencl-driver). Remove intel-compute-runtime? [y/N]

I type "y" and it proceeded to update.

Did something change? Because I have never had this before and I feel like the intel-compute thing is a kernel or system level install from a previous update because I have never installed an intel GPU. Could have all versions of OpenCL installed without conflict and swap in and out GPUs or use both any combination of GPUs before. Or is all OpenCL now unified?

I only ask because I have a workstation that I will probably be using dual GPU on at some point.

Are you sure that you already had opencl-amd installed? It looks like a package update needed to pull in opencl-amd as a dependency, and that is where the conflicts came from.

Thanks for your reply and help.
I think it was already installed because I have the amf-amdgpu-pro and vulkan-amdgpu-pro drivers installed that are required by obs-studio-amf and davinci-resolve. Unless for some reason it was uninstalled by something else and I just didn't realise until this update?

I'm not sure, that's an odd one. I guess another possibility is there was a change to the package, such as something was added to the conflicts list which wasn't there before.

Interestingly, out of these three packages (opencl-amd, intel-compute-runtime, and opencl-nvidia) only opencl-amd has a conflicting package list.

Only opencl-amd is a troublemaker, who cannot get along with others!

If opencl-amd was installed the whole time like you suggest, I have to guess there was an upstream decision to add all these packages to the conflicts list--probably to resolve some issues discovered on systems that had multiple opencl packages installed.

Yeah, it is really strange. After reading you reply, I copied what you did but for
pacman -Sii opencl-nvidia and
pacman -Sii intel-compute-runtime

and it seems like all three come with the opencl-driverpackage. It’s making me wonder if it being added to the conflicts list in opencl-amd is where the issue comes from. And then, the question is what is difference between the opencl-driver that opencl-amd provides and what is being provided or used by opencl-nvidia and intel-compute-runtime :thinking:. Super confusing.

Thanks again for your help and teaching me pacman -Sii I never knew that existed. So much to still to learn about pacman.

Hey, I maintain the opencl-amd package. I try occasionally to search issues about it on other forums than the AUR but Google sometimes picks it up after many days. ROCm has problems when installed together with other opencl packages (like opencl-mesa) which is why I added the opencl-driver to conflicts. After some discussion in the AUR comments I reverted the change so it should be fine now.

Thanks for the feedback and for all your work maintaining the package. It has been a massive help to me and I am sure many others.
