Summary
=======
Package looks good here, with two notes.
* I would package 6.4.1 as the initial release. It maybe some time before uploads resume after the Debian 13 hard freeze is over.
* Your import into Salsa does not have the standard branch structure. A tutorial on how to create this can be seen at the link below.
https://wiki.debian.org/PhilWyett/DebianImportNewPackageIntoSalsa
When the above are done, it would be good to file an RFS[1] bug, so that more DD sponsors can see that your package is in a good state.

I: hipblas-common source: debian-watch-file-is-missing
N:
N: This source package is not Debian-native but it does not have a
N: debian/watch file. This file is used for automatic detection of new
N: upstream versions by the Debian External Health Status project and other
N: project infrastructure. If this package is maintained upstream, please
N: consider adding a debian/watch file to detect new releases.
N:
N: If the package is not maintained upstream or if upstream uses a
N: distribution mechanism that cannot be meaningfully monitored by uscan and
N: the Debian External Health Status project, please consider adding a
N: debian/watch file containing only comments documenting the situation.
N:
N: Please refer to Upstream source location: debian/watch (Section 4.11) in
N: the Debian Policy Manual and the uscan(1) manual page for details.

N: information in other places as well.

I: hipblas-common source: out-of-date-standards-version 4.6.2 (released 2022-12-17) (current is 4.7.2)
N:
N: The source package refers to a Standards-Version older than the one that
N: was current at the time the package was created (according to the
N: timestamp of the latest debian/changelog entry). Please consider updating
N: the package to current Policy and setting this control field
N: appropriately.
N:
N: If the package is already compliant with the current standards, you don't
N: have to re-upload the package just to adjust the Standards-Version control
N: field. However, please remember to update this field next time you upload
N: the package.

N:

P: hipblas-common source: trailing-whitespace [debian/control:21]
N:
N: This file contains lines with trailing whitespace characters.
N:
N: Whilst often harmless and unsightly, such extra whitespaces can also cause
N: tools to interpret the whitespace characters literally. The tool diff(1)
N: does not like them, either. They are best avoided.
N:
N: Some of these problems can be hard to track down.
N:
N: Whitespace at the end of lines may be removed with the following:
N:
N: $ sed -i -e 's@[[:space:]]*$@@g' debian/control debian/changelog
N:
N: If you use Emacs, you can also use "M-x wh-cl" (whitespace-cleanup).
N:
N: However, if you wish to only remove trailing spaces and leave trailing
N: tabs (eg. for Makefiles), you can use the following code snippet:
N:
N: $ sed -i -e 's@[ ]*$@@g' debian/rules
N:
N: To remove empty lines from the end of a file, you can use:
N:
N: $ sed -i -e :a -e '/^\n*$/{$d;N;};/\n$/ba' debian/rules

It would be good to import the package into Debian Salsa.
A tutorial is at the link below.

Hello Phil,
I have made the necessary changes and re-uploaded the package.
Additionally, I had already pushed the package to Salsa[1] but had forgotten to add it in Vcs. I have also added an upstream contact now.
Regards,
Spaarsh
