How to install the AMD ADL library on ubuntu

The latest ATI blockchain drivers doesn't include the ADL. The installation instructions in the ADL release refer to the included adlutil, but how can I install the library so 3rd party software (like Claymore) can use it?

Any help'd be appreciated.

This issue is also here:

Amd ADL library not found · Issue #139 · nanopool/Claymore-Dual-Miner · GitHub

There is actually no problems, because it's searching for a specific set of library files that is only necessary in Fedora:

I did a strace on the miner and this is the output:

open("/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libatiadlxx.so", O_RDONLY|O_CLOEXEC) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory) open("/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libatiadlxx.so", O_RDONLY|O_CLOEXEC) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory) open("/lib/libatiadlxx.so", O_RDONLY|O_CLOEXEC) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory) open("/usr/lib/libatiadlxx.so", O_RDONLY|O_CLOEXEC) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory) munmap(0x7f6567dda000, 146284)          = 0 write(1, "\33[0mAMD ADL library not found.\n", 31) = 31

(see, https://www.rpmfind.net/linux/RPM/rpmfusion/nonfree/fedora/updates/21/i386/xorg-x11-drv-catalyst-lib... )

Issue is resolved ! The miner is operating just as it should, the error can be ignored for Ubuntu , otherwise if you're running Fedora you can download those necessary lib files.
