Description

Description of errors

The Debian 13+ documentation currently uses the legacy .list format for APT sources:
https://instinct.docs.amd.com/projects/amdgpu-docs/en/develop/install/detailed-install/package-manager/package-manager-debian.html

Debian 13 (Trixie) and later use the new deb822 format (.sources files). The correct method is:

sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/amdgpu.sources <<END
Enabled: yes
Types: deb
URIs: https://repo.radeon.com/amdgpu/latest/ubuntu/
Suites: noble
Components: main
Architectures: amd64
Signed-By: /etc/apt/keyrings/rocm.gpg
END

Please update the docs to reflect this. Thanks!
