I'm not too concerned with OpenCL support in a free version, nor have I ever been.

Seeing as AMD and Nvidia, not to mention Intel are releasing their implementations directly for BSD or similar license use my needs have been fulfilled.

More to the point, all three have to adhere to Khronos specification created by Apple and now in their committee for all to leverage.

That's all that really needs to happen.

I would suggest when AMD releases their opencl sdk that will be working with LLVM/Clang that the Clang package guys coordinate with the AMD non-free driver packagers and make sure the AMD SDK for OpenCL is included in the AMD fglx driver files ala what Nvidia package maintainers do for the nvidia non-free driver stack.

thanks

They are no free implementation of opencl except
http://cgit.freedesktop.org/mesa/clover
that is not packaged for debian

Therefore mark as wontfix

If you want opencl support open a request for package bug for clover
and block this bug by the RFP.

something like this bcc:<cont...@bugs.debian.org>,
tags 630321 - wontfix
block  630321 by RFPbugnumber
thanks
