I have spent a lot of time trying to get OpenCL to work on my RX 470. My goal is to run this server as a Folding@Home client. I have read guides like: How do I get a Radeon RX 550 working with OpenCL on Ubuntu 16.04? AMD APP SDK no longer exists and some posts from other forums says that it is no longer needed too. My system runs Ubuntu Server 18.04.1 and I have ran
sudo ./amdgpu-pro-install --opencl=legacy -y
This however doesn't work gives me this:

E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.
This is probably because I don't use x11 or wayland since the server is running without any desktop environment. Using the headless option does work. So I used this instead:
sudo ./amdgpu-pro-install --opencl=legacy -y --headless
After a reboot, I used clinfo to check if openCL is working but all I get is this:
Number of platforms 0
What should I do?
