Dear all,

Seeing as it has been around year since we added dev-libs/opencl-icd-loader to the tree, I wonder whether it would perhaps make sense to make it, rather than dev-libs/ocl-icd, the preferred OpenCL ICD loader for new installations.

Advantages (that I can see) of opencl-icd-loader:
 - official OpenCL ICD loader of the Khronos Group
- as a consequence of the above, is kept in good sync with official Khronos Group OpenCL headers (dev-util/opencl-headers) - pure C with a fairly minimal set of dependencies, in particular does not does not bdepend on Ruby

Advantages (that I can see) of ocl-icd:
 - has been around for longer

WDYT?

PS. Thank you ionen for reminding me of this.
