    As someone pointed out in the forums (https://community.amd.com/thread/228245) the script is broken.

    Provided that you have the right kernel and header version, you need to install the missing packages manually, run:

    apt install amdgpu-dkms libdrm-amdgpu-amdgpu1 libdrm-amdgpu1 libdrm2-amdgpu
