### Additions

### Changes

* Packaging has been split into a runtime package (`rocalution`) and a development package
  (`rocalution-devel`):
  The development package depends on the runtime package. When installing the runtime package,
  the package manager will suggest the installation of the development package to aid users
  transitioning from the previous version's combined package. This suggestion by package manager is
  for all supported operating systems (except CentOS 7) to aid in the transition. The `suggestion`
  feature in the runtime package is introduced as a deprecated feature and will be removed in a future
  ROCm release.

### Deprecations

* `GlobalPairwiseAMG`: use `PairwiseAMG` instead
