Installing rocDecode with the package installer
********************************************************************

Three rocDecode packages are available:

* ``rocdecode``: The rocDecode runtime package. This is the basic rocDecode package. It must always be installed.
* ``rocdecode-dev``: The rocDecode development package. This package installs a full suite of libraries, header files, and samples. This package needs to be installed to use the rocDecode samples.
* ``rocdecode-test``: A test package that provides a CTest to verify the installation. This package needs to be installed to use the rocDecode samples.
