The package python-pyopencl depends on nvidia-current, which makes it
impossible to correctly use on AMD / ATI systems.
In debbugs #628702 debian started using a virtual package opencl-icd
instead of depending directly on particular graphics driver / opencl
implementation.
We should follow the same.
TODO
* syn pyopencl
* nvidia-graphics-drivers or nvidia-common (not sure) to provide opencl-icd
* fglrx-installer to provide opencl-icd
** Summary changed:
- pyopencl falsely depends on nvidia-current
+ pyopencl - please sync & use opencl-icd virtual package
** Description changed:
- The package python-pyopencl depends on nvidia-current, which makes it
impossible to correctly use on AMD / ATI systems.
- Please remove this unnecessary dependency.
